User:Thehelpfulbot
Emergency bot shutoff button
 | This user account is a bot that uses AutoWikiBrowser, operated by Thehelpfulone (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. The bot is currently inactive but retains the approval of the community. To stop this bot until restarted by the bot's owner, edit its talk page. If that page is a redirect, edit that original redirecting page, not the target of the redirect. Administrators: if this bot continues causing harm after receiving a message, please block it or remove from the approved accounts. |  |
Emergency bot shutoff button
Administrators: Use this button if the bot is malfunctioning. (direct link)
Non-administrators can a malfunctioning bot to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Non-admins: If the bot is malfunctioning, send me a message on my talk page at User talk:Thehelpfulone, contact me on IRC with the nick Thehelpfulone and the cloak @wikimedia/Thehelpfulone. In serious cases, report to WP:AN and the bot will be reviewed by admins and blocked if necessary. You can also ask any admin to block the bot if it is malfunctioning, but if I am around, I would prefer if you would notify me first - then I can just stop it! :) The Helpful One
