[edit] Anabolic protoplaser -> Protoplaser

Could a bot change all links to anabolic protoplaser to instead lead to protoplaser? The "anabolic" parts doesn't seem... canon.. -- Captain M.K.B. 03:12, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

Done -- Kobi - (Talk) 08:39, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Automatic series categorization for images

As I suggested on Category talk:Memory Alpha images#Series Categories, would it be possible for a bot to automagically categorize images per series based on their links to three-letter acronyms or movies? -- Harry talk 20:24, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I replied there re:"category suggestion policy", but also made a separate suggestion regarding possible categorization of images by series which might, in the long run, be better than just tagging image pages with a category directly. Other than that, it should be possible to add category links to those pages depending on which TLA-link they include. Possible problems: Images that are uncited, images that have a wrong citation (because a new image revision was uploaded, but the description page not changed accordingly), image pages that have additional text&links, leading to "false positives". If this is done, it should only be considered a first step before actually checking the pages manually. Anyone up for that task? -- Cid Highwind 20:38, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Babel userboxes

Could a bot copy all the text that is on the userboxes on the english babel page and paste them into the swedish version of "Babel"? I have already done some of the work but it isn't just a plain copy that is needed, the category links "User En", needs to be translated to "Användare En". Do you think a bot could handle that kind of work? (Sorry, doesn't quite get the hang of interwiki linking in texts, yet) bjorn98009_91 17:48, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Czech MA interwiki links

Could a bot add interwiki links to the MA:cs? If this is a dumb question, I'm sorry :) --JemHadar 17:49, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Solanogen-based lifeform links

Everything linking to Solanogen-based lifeform needs to be changed to Solanogen-based lifeform. In fact, all text saying "Solanogen" needs to be changed to "Solanogen," per the script. I'd do it myself, but I'm too tired and it is a lot of links/words. --OuroborosCobra talk 07:37, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, I can't find the difference?! --Plasmarelais Ξ TALK Ξ Ξ 16:26, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
Probably because a bot already fixed it :) --- Jaz 02:41, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] missing interwiki links on MA/en

Hello! Our bot was running interwiki.py and generated a list of nearly 1800 interwiki links that are missing here. So I'm looking for somebody to add these IWL using the english warnfile our bot generated (which I would send per email). It would be nice if one of your bots could manage this, so I don't need to request bot permission on MA/en and botflag from wikia staff. Thank you very much! --Plasmarelais Ξ TALK Ξ Ξ 22:49, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
