User:CarnivorousBot

This user account is a bot operated by CarnivorousBunny (talk). It is used to make repetitive automated or semi-automated edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually, in accordance with the bot policy. This bot does not yet have the approval of the community, or approval has been withdrawn or expired, and therefore shouldn't be making edits that appear to be unassisted except in the operator's or its own user and user talk space. Administrators: if this bot is making edits that appear to be unassisted to pages not in the operator's or its own userspace, please block it.

Changing the text located here to "false" will stop the bot from making edits without blocking it. Click the button on the left if you would like to block the bot anyway.

Monitors WP:Requests for permissions/Confirmed and notifies users that are already in the autoconfirmed usergroup.

Requests to create redirects can be made by all autoconfirmed or confirmed users on the page User:CarnivorousBot/Requests. Please put your requests in the format:

without italics or quotes, and do not add spaces between article names. The exclamation point is not a typo. Please write a comment after the exclamation. For example, a redirect from the page "Apple" to the page "Pear" with comment "comment" would read:

Please make new requests on new lines.

You may see error messages beside your request after it has been processed by CarnivorousBot. The following is a list of error messages and what they mean.

1. "Page already exists" - The page that you are writing the redirect to already exists, meaning that the bot would be deleting content if preforming the action. This is likely a user error.
2. "Already done" - The redirect has already been created by someone else.
3. "Target does not exist" - The page you are trying to redirect to doesn't exist.
4. "Duplicate" - The redirect has already been requested on the same page.

The source code is currently not available, but will probably become available under GPL in the near future.

Administrators: Instead of blocking, consider changing the text on User:CarnivorousBot/run to "false". The bot will switch off. If you would like to block the bot anyway, please click the button at the top of the page. After blocking or switching off, please notify CarnivorusBunny.

Autoconfirmed and Confirmed Users: If the bot is malfunctioning, please change User:CarnivorousBot/run to "false" (casing doesn't matter). The bot will switch off. Please then notify CarnivorusBunny, the bot's operator.

All Users: To stop a malfunctioning bot, report it at AIV.
