 * I can't seem to get it to make a list of pages to edit from a file or page on the wiki, unless someone could help me to figure this out.  Hazard-SJ  ㋡   03:30, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
 * The API is probably the easiest. If you're looking for pages that include a specific template, you're gonna want mw:API:Embeddedin. If you still want to withdraw the request for now, let us know. -- slakr \ talk / 07:07, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I'll look into the API soon, thanks.  Hazard-SJ  ㋡   07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually, slakr, I have a list of the pages to be edited, but not a means of letting the bot go through them. Isn't there only a  option for this? The pages in question are talk pages, and some don't exist, so that's out of the question.   Hazard-SJ  ㋡   21:16, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
 * &mdash; per owner's request until the technical details of the bot's operation can be hammered out. -- slakr \ talk / 02:15, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
