User:Nixeagle/Linkwatcher

Bot from v0.9.x
This is the current bot that is on IRC right now. It is slated to be replaced with an new bot, that is rebuilt from the lessons learned from this bot. This bot will remain up until a stable equivalent bot is reached. —— Eagle (ask me for help) 20:52, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

List of desired commands
