AutoWikiBrowser

Sorry, unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.
Shortcuts
Please review the AWB guide before making a request. Users are rarely approved unless they have either 250 non-automated mainspace edits or 500 total mainspace edits. You can check your non-automated contributions on XTools. Administrators are automatically approved and do not need to request access. For bots, you must first have a bot approval request approved, or in trial; link to your BRFA in the request.
This page is for requesting AWB Access for English Wikipedia only. Other projects have their own check pages and you should ask administrators there to add you.
If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage. If you will make many or fast automated edits using AWB, you may wish to use a separate (or bot) account for that purpose; first create the account, give it a userpage declaring it to be your alternate account, then make the request using your main account.

Mostly to fix links after a page move. Used AWB years ago, today surprised to find it requires a separate authorisation. Must have missed it. Thanks :) — kashmīrī TALK 16:15, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I love correcting errors on pages and often use the Check Wikipedia tool to find pages to fix. I would appreciate using this tool to help. Thank you! Paulinefowler666 (talk) 18:09, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For the past bit i've been been contributing to Wikipedia by means of Counter Vandalism, as an extension of this I think that AWB can allow me to further my counter vandalism efforts, as well as extend into other maintenance like contributions with a similar level of efficiency as my counter-vandalism efforts.

Reason for requesting autowikibrowser rights: I've been doing counter-vandalism for a bit, and AWB rights will allow me to begin editing Wikipedia with similar effectiveness that I have while recent changes patrolling. I hope to contribute to the law Wikiproject and overall Wikipedia mainspace. BerryForPerpetuity (talk) 14:12, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

BerryForPerpetuity, AWB isn't really useful for counter-vandalism. How do you see yourself using AWB if granted access? Primefac (talk) 14:22, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Primefac; typos in articles, AWB's general fixes, and tagging is probably what I would start out with. Counter-Vandalism was just an example for the efficiency I hope to achieve with my AWB edits. BerryForPerpetuity (talk) BerryForPerpetuity (talk) 14:26, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm an on-and-off WP:GNOME with a decent knowledge of regex, and would like to use AWB to make corrections for typos, formatting errors, and other similar things faster - in general, stuff that can be found with a quick regex search. {{Lemondoge|Talk|Contributions}} 18:25, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
