AutoWikiBrowser

Sorry, unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.
Shortcuts
Please review the AWB guide before making a request. Users with under 250 non-automated mainspace edits or 500 total mainspace edits are rarely approved. You can check your non-automated contributions on XTools. Administrators are automatically approved and do not need to request access. For bots, please consult the Bot Approvals Group or bureaucrats' noticeboard about adding AWB access.
This page is for requesting AWB Access for English Wikipedia only. Other projects have their own check pages and you should ask administrators there to add you.
If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage. If you will make many or fast automated edits using AWB, you may wish to use a separate (or bot) account for that purpose; first create the account, give it a userpage declaring it to be your alternate account, then make the request using your main account.


User:Governor Sheng

I've been on Wikipedia for three years, made 4.5k+ edits, and created 37 articles. --Governor Sheng (talk) 23:01, 21 November 2020 (UTC) Governor Sheng (talk) 23:01, 21 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
And how do you see yourself using AWB? Primefac (talk) 02:16, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: Please note that this user has also requested rollback, PCR, autopatrolled, and NPR with the same rationale. Anarchyte (talk • work) 04:37, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I created a lot of new articles, many of them related to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Mostar-Duvno. I tend to create many more articles on the subject, and do more articles related to the Catholic Church in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Catholic Church in Croatia. These will include hundreds of new articles, major modifications on already existing articles and so on. I've already worked on Paškal Buconjić and have largelly improved other articles unrelated to this topic (Sheng Shicai, Mahmut Muhiti etc.). I've made many minor edits on these articles, that included minor fixes or improvements I later saw as more fitting. Since I'll be working on so many articles at once, I'd like to use a simpler method to implement minor improvements to them all instead by visiting one by one. --Governor Sheng (talk) 12:35, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
But you havent explained what these edits might be. AWB is used for non-contraversial similar edits across many pages, but im very worried about mass-creation of hundreds of pages. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 18:13, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The main reason is form. I want that pages on similar subjects be uniformed. For example, previously, as I'm not a native English speaker, I used the word pastor for Croatian župnik on many pages, and on others, I used the term vicar, but eventually found out that the parson is the best translation. So I had to manually change all these words in so many articles. So, nothing controversial, just for uniformity's sake. --Governor Sheng (talk) 13:54, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Ahmetlii

I would like to use AWB on periodical typo fixes, for example: indepence --> independence, indepedent --> independent , etc. I promise that I will not use it against Wikipedia rules, policies, or common practices. Ahmetlii (talk) 17:27, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:SMB99thx

I'm requesting AWB here to complete fixing all typos in Wikipedia:Typo Team/moss/H and Wikipedia:Typo Team/moss/I, also including occasional cleanup when necessary (i.e. fixing refs). Without AWB as a college student makes this job too tedious. With AWB, it could help reduce my time to fix all of them. SMB99thx my edits! 08:49, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Also, please note that I understand the rules of using AWB. I will not make any controversial edits, abide by policies and guidelines, take responsibility of my edits and will not use AWB to make insignificant edits/balloon up the edit count. SMB99thx my edits! 22:48, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Sportzpikachu

I'd like to use AWB to fix typos and other things on RedWarn's documentation pages. I will also use AWB to perform other types of semi-automation in the future. If needed, the permission may be granted to my alt sportshead (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), but I'd prefer to be able to use AWB on my main account. ―sportzpikachu my talkcontribs 07:31, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:JJPMaster

I'd like to use AutoWikiBrowser for a variety of reasons. Some of these reasons are that I would like to use it in order to fix typos and efficiently create lists, but the primary reason I'm requesting it is in order to access the WikiFunctions .NET library which contains materials that could be useful if I try to create a bot or script using a .NET programming language, which I do intend on doing in the future.

User:ItsObjectiveee

Many times I have to make changes again on Wikipedia just because of typos or punctuation I forgot. For this reason I need a bot to make small changes to the undisputed pages in Wikipedia. Undisputed many pages I've made many undisputed changes before, just because of a few punctuation errors These are just a few examples: Bur, Special sports equipment ItsObjectiveee (talk) 04:04, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
