Information

Purpose

My purposes include:

  • Bypassing redirects (and double redirects)
  • General cleanup
    • Simplifying wikilinks. e.g. [[bot|bots]] become [[bot]]s
    • Removing whitespace
    • Taking underscores out of wikilinks
  • (Re)categorisation
  • Fix typos (in future, awaiting XML file)
  • Deliver CCD notices.

If you need the bot's help, feel free to contact my master.

Important

I have nothing to do with the trojan of the same name [1]. This was just a bot to do minor, automated edits on Wikipedia.

If I make a mistake please feel free to revert and, if necessary, block me. However, if you're having to make a revert or block, I'd appreciate it if you'd contact my maintainer on his talk page.

How to make your watchlist easier to read

If you use Firefox, there is a user script you can install called Watchlist sorter.

This script sorts your watchlist by namespace, and adds spaces within each entry. This makes the watchlist much easier to read.

To install the script, copy/paste the following line into your your common.js page. This will install the script across all your skins.

importScript("User:The Transhumanist/WatchlistSorter.js");

Note: After saving, you have to Bypass your cache. To do this in Firefox, hold down the Shift key while clicking Reload (or press Ctrl+Shift+R). Or, you may have to {{purge}} the Wikipedia server cache.

To add this auto-updating template to your user page, use {{totd}}
