User:Syrcatbot
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Syrcatbot is an account maintained by User:Syrthiss. It operates only on the english wikipedia, using AutoWikiBrowser to do recategorizations in support of Categories for Deletion. Syrcatbot is entirely supervised, as I am the one hitting the button to do the cut and paste for the categories.
I wanted to begin using Syrcatbot for several reasons:
- I've been doing a ton of recategorizations with my Syrthiss account, and I feel that clutters up my contributions list.
- I can set my preferences with Syrcatbot so that I don't load images (to reduce server resources)
- With a bot flag, all my recategorizations won't show up in Special:Recentchanges
- I don't run the risk of my main account being blocked for editing at bot-like speeds. While Syrthiss is an admin account and I could unblock myself, I'd rather avoid having to unblock myself or ask another admin to do so.
