Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, RC Patrolbot (TEST), contains the suffix "-bot", which is generally reserved for authorized bot accounts. You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
 * Adding on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Changing username.

Hi. I want to write scripts to help do counter-vandalism, and execute these scripts using an account. I didn't realize this wasn't allowed. Is there a way to get authorization? — Preceding unsigned comment added by RC Patrolbot (TEST) (talk • contribs)
 * Hello there, your question is answered in the message above. Please see bot accounts for more information. Waggie (talk) 05:54, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

 * I suggest you read Creating a bot. PhilKnight (talk) 18:24, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks man - will give it a read. RC Patroller (TEST) (talk) 04:17, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

I'm going to start testing some edits/reverts from the RC feed soon. Is there a way to get stats (i.e. account status/permissions/number of edits etc) in real time for the ips/accounts making recent edits?
 * If you are planning on *doing* the edits, then stop now. If not, this ApiSandbox query is of help. As a note, I am 99% sure that if you try to make a countervandalism bot, it will be rejected. Dat GuyTalkContribs 10:49, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

Hmm, ok point taken IO guess. I'll check out the API but I'd still like to know how to check a user/ip's status in real time - "https://tools.wmflabs.org/xtools-ec/" doesn't seem to update instantly (and throttles me if I use it too often anyway
 * I assume you've read the available documentation for the API. If that doesn't answer your question, you can try the mailing list. Huon (talk) 18:51, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
