General Info

Zoybot is a wiki bot written by Zoycite (talk). It automates editing a massive number of articles, particularly useful if you have generated this data for hundreds or thousands of articles using a program or script.

Use of Zoybot is limited to wiki Administrators, and can only be executed by Zoycite. This prevents large scale vandalism.

Formatting Bot data

The bot is very simple, and reads a text file. The text file contains one or more article texts. The file must adhere to the following guidelines.

1. The file must begin with a blank line
2. Articles must have both begin and end statements
3. Article Begin statements must contain an Article Name
4. Article End statements contain no other data on the same line
5. A Blank line exists between the end statement and begin statement of another article
6. Articles are not duplicated
7. Article names must be valid MediaWiki article names
8. Article names must not contain a # as this will be interpreted as an anchor
