Tip of the day...

Automating tasks on Wikipedia

Uploading hundreds of files or changing thousands of pages can be tedious. Limited automation is allowed on Wikipedia as long as it follows certain policies. The easiest way is to use AutoWikiBrowser.

Or, you always can grab your favorite scripting language and write a bot, but there is no need to reinvent the wheel: most modern programming languages have a MediaWiki library already written, there is a full list or programming languages and libraries here. Once you have written the code, you can request approval to trial run your bot. Once approved, your bot will be flagged, so it can be hidden from the list of recent changes. Alternatively you can request someone else take care of the whole matter for you.

Variations of English

Please read WP:ENGVAR. I see you changed an article about an American law to British English, but someone else has reverted you so that's ok now. Note that "ize" is used in American and British English. Doug Weller talk 16:27, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

Most articles use either American or British English. It depends on a couple of things, mainly the content. If it's on a clearly American subject, it will be American English. Most articles to do with British Commonwealth subjects will use British English, some will use Indian English. Sometimes it depends on the original creator's use. Some articles will have a message on their talk page or a "hidden message" that you see when you edit. One point I will make is many editors don't realise that the spelling "ize" can is both British and American. Doug Weller talk 18:10, 2 October 2018 (UTC)
