To get approved to run a bot, describe your bot below, create a new account for it, run some tests for a short time, and get agreement from other users that the bot's use is a good idea. Once that is done, a formal request for a bot flag is made at [[meta:Requests for bot status]]. |

Bots are automated scripts or processes which perform jobs on Wikipedia. Usually they do jobs which would take a long time to do without the bot.
Bots perform their jobs under a different user name than the owner, so that it is easy to tell them apart. Also, bot edits are hidden from pages like Special:Recentchanges to keep them from flooding the list. To see the bot edits click "show bot edits" at the top of Newest changes.
The most popular type of bot is called the Python Wikipedia Robot Framework or "pywikipediabot" for short.
