Requests for registration

Please read the quick guide on the main page before requesting permission. In applying for AWB access, you indicate that you will abide by that agreement. Also, this page is for requesting AWB Access for this wiki (English Wikipedia) only. Thank you.

Names

Please add your name to the bottom of the list using {{AWBUser|your username}} ~~~~~ (write it exactly as it is, don't add underscores instead of spaces or change case of first letter). (That's 5 tildes). If the list contains entries that are over 24 hours old, please mention this (nicely) at WP:AN, and an admin should be by shortly to process the requests. Note that users with under 500 mainspace edits are rarely approved. Also, you do not need to give a reason for wanting AWB access, unless you do not meet the 500 mainspace edits! If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage.
Example of code format: * {{AWBUser|Username}} ~~~~~
(5 tildes post the date stamp)

I would love to be able to use this tool to help Wikipedia.[reply]

Trial bots approved?

Seeking opinions here: shouldn't bots which are only approved for trial be only placed on the "users" list, rather than getting unthrottled editing as a bot? It ties in the the whole idea of a bot trial - that *every* edit is checked. Martinp23 23:08, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's why the number of edits in a trial period are limited. I'm not even sure if trail bots get unthrottled edits. All bots have some sort of throttle to avoid overload. - Mgm|^(talk) 07:55, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think testing the bot in automatic mode is one of the item that should be tested in trial period. --WinHunter ^(talk) 09:10, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Listing them in bots is required to complete testing. Bots in trials have various edit restrictions imposed (e.g. edits per min, max edits, namespace restrictions). Bots that are denied permission to operate can easily be removed. (BAG member) — xaosflux ^Talk 11:32, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
