I have recently taken up an AutoWikiBrowser bot to use for this wiki. The bot, conveniently named TerrariamcSwaggins' Bot, would be mainly used for modifying categories across the wiki, or performing other tedious tasks. This post is for my bot flag request. Due to the rapid editing rate of many bots, a bot can easily overwhelm Special:WikiActivity and Special:RecentChanges. A bog flag hides a bot's edits from those two lists. As the AWB is semi-automatic, rather than fully automatic, it is essentially impossible for bad edits to be published without my noticing. Also, the bot is not to be used as a sock puppet.

Community consensus is needed for bot flag approval, so please offer any opinions or concerns you have in the comments section below.

Thanks.

I don't think a community consensus is required for a bot flag. I've gotten a bot flag without a consensus. But anyways--
