User:StefanBot

This user account is a bot operated by Stefan (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 This bot does not yet have the approval of the community, or approval has been withdrawn or expired, and therefore shouldn't be making edits that appear to be unassisted except in the operator's or its own user and user talk space.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.

This bot will read fish pages, parse the taxobox and find the scientific name , find a good place to put a fishbase and ITIS reference on and insert that reference.

• If fishbase link or template already exists in the article the bot will do no edit.
• If a ITIS link or template already exists in the article the bot will do no edit.
• The boot will also check that the scientific name actually leads to a existing fishbase page, therefore verifying the scientific names in the taxobaox.
• If Reference section exists it will add the reference there otherwise it will add a reference section.
• if it does a edit it will unify References, External links, See also, related articles and i..e removing additional spaces, plural s and set the upper/lower cases.

It will place the reference section before the first of the following sections

• See also
• External links
• related articles

The boot will look in the taxobox and see if conservation status is already there, if so nothing is done. The boot will check that the article is about a species not a genera, if not nothing will be done. The boot will get the sientific name from the taxobox and get the conservation status and insert that into the taxobox after tha name tag.

• The boot have done over 700[1] edits. See StefanBot contibutions,
• All articles with taxoboxes that the bot understands in all articles tagged with the Fish category is now updated.

• Reformat fishbase and ITIS links to use the template instead of linking directly.
• Teach the bot to add fishbase links to family and order articles also.
