AutoWikiBrowser can be used by editors and bots to fix common syntax errors. WP:CHECKWIKI (direct link) provides lists of syntax errors. The following list shows which errors can be fixed by WP:AWB. The column "Module or Regex" provides hints of how to create skip conditions in AWB.

AWB Notes

^ It doesn't cover only some really rare cases
^ Inserts the section header and the reference tag if there already other headers
^ Not always a replacement is possible. Check for instance bugzilla:44820
^ Use F&R to remove regex \u200E|\uFEFF|\u200B|\u2028. This won't work if "Skip if no changes" and this is the only change.
^ It won't fix same category with different keys.
^ It won't unicodify the page if it contains a math tag
^ It won't fix unbalanced tags
^ It fixes [[foo||bar]]→[[foo|bar]] and [[foo|bar|]]→[[foo|bar]]
^ It does not cover some weird non alphabet cases
^ It won't fix unbalanced tags
^ It won't fix tags inside blockquote etc.
^ It won't fix tags inside blockquote etc.
^ Corrects only cases where the whole title is bold
^ Does not handle 3 small tags in a row nor double </small></small> in a row.
^ It won't cover some edge cases
^ Many in-use ISBNs have invalid checksums due to publisher errors. See ISBN#Errors_in_usage.
^ The CHECKWIKI regex is too greedy. %20 should not be replaced inside urls
^ Autotagging can only tag with {{Empty section}} empty sections with level 2 header
^ It won't fix double brackets to ftp

CheckWiki False positives

^ {{{|}} is needed in infoboxes as some cannot identify {| as the start of a wikitable.
