It is used to make repetitive automated or semi-automated edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually, in accordance with the bot policy. This bot does not yet have the approval of the community, or approval has been withdrawn or expired, and therefore shouldn't be making edits that appear to be unassisted except in the operator's or its own user and user talk space. Administrators: if this bot is making edits that appear to be unassisted to pages not in the operator's or its own userspace, please block it. |

This bot updates the number of cases on the AMA Alerts page, based on the contents of a category.
Written in c#, using the Query API and Dotnetwikibot framework, the program checks a category for the number of pages in it, and then posts that number to a wikipedia page. This happens every 5 minutes.
