Bot policy
fatuʻi vaheHello. To facilitate steward granting of bot access, I'd like to implement the standard bot policy on this wiki. This will involve creating a redirect to this page from Project:Bot policy, and adding a line at the top noting that it is used here. In particular, this policy allows automatic acceptance of known interlanguage linking bots (if this page says that is acceptable), which form the vast majority of such requests.
Please read the text at m:Bot policy before commenting. If you object, please say so; it will be implemented in one week if there is no objection, since it is particularly written to streamline bot requests on wikis with little or no community interested in bot access requests. —Pathoschild 04:40:20, 08 Nōvema 2007 (UTC)
- Done. —Pathoschild 15:34:27, 27 Nōvema 2007 (UTC)
New requests
fatuʻi vaheBot flag for StigBot
fatuʻi vaheI hereby request botflag on this wiki for my bot StigBot.

- Other: Runs manually initiated automatic supervised and sometimes entirely manual. Already has bot flag on: ar, bpy, en, eo, fr, no, oc, pt, ro and vo.

Thank you ! ----Ghaly 19:25, 14 Maʻasi 2009 (UTC)
Global bots
fatuʻi vaheHello. The standard bot policy was updated to allow global bots, which are now technically possible. These are trusted bots that will be given bot access on every wiki that allows global bots (the local policy or request page must explicitly allow them, or they won't get access on this wiki). The current requirements for global bots are:
- a global bot must only maintain interlanguage links or fix double-redirects;
- a global bot must have already been active on several wikis, with long-term contributions demonstrating its trustworthiness.
Does anyone object to allowing global bots on this wiki? I'll update the local policy in a week if there are no objections. Thanks. —Pathoschild 18:06:19, 28 Siulai 2008 (UTC)
- Seems a good idea to me. Allow. --Tauʻolunga 06:43, 29 Siulai 2008 (UTC)
