User:Disambot

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 This bot does not yet have the approval of the community, or approval has been withdrawn or expired, and therefore shouldn't be making edits that appear to be unassisted except in the operator's or its own user and user talk space.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

Hi there! I'm Disambot, a Wikipedia robot owned and maintained by User:xDanielx. I was written in Python and use a custom framework to read and edit pages. (If you'd like the source, drop me a request and I'll be happy to share it.) I plan to start with short runs -- a few hundred edits at a time -- and work my way up to several-hour-long runs if all goes well.

My current task involves cleaning up disambiguation pages so that they conform to Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages). This was suggested by User:Xyzzyplugh [1]. If I find a simple stylistic error, I fix it automatically; if I find a probable fault in an article but can't easily fix it myself, I add the culprit to /Potential atrocities for human review.

My RFBA has yet to be approved. If you see me make any questionable edits in the mean time, be assured that I am monitoring the bot very carefully and won't let it make more than a couple edits at a time.
