StarfieldWiki:Bot Requests

From Starfield Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

This page can be used to request that one of the wiki's bots do something. All members of the community are welcome to make requests or comment on existing requests.

Some general guidelines for bot requests are:

  • The task should involve a large number of changes that would take a human an inordinate amount of time, or would be highly prone to errors.
  • The task should be non-controversial. If a member of the community is likely to object to the change, please bring it up on the Community Portal first.

Our Bots and What They're Good At

  • HoodBot: HoodBot is adaptable to a wide range of tasks. Many of its current tasks devolve into using a list of pages (typically defined by a Category, What Links Here, or user-specified) and replacing text such as links or template calls on those pages. While replacing data tends to be its main focus, it can also do information gathering, page moves/deletion/protection, and virtually anything else an editor can do on the wiki. HoodBot's ability to pull game data is still somewhat limited.

Add Planet Navbox to the bottom of every planet[edit]

See bottom of Bardeen_III-b for an example.

{{Planet Navbox}} will load in all the planets and moons in a system to show on the bottom of a planet page. Allows for easy navigation through a given system.

Done. It was pretty basic, but let me know if you notice any issues. Robin Hood(talk) 18:58, 16 April 2024 (EDT)

Add Star System Navbox to the bottom of every star system[edit]

See bottom of Sol System for an example.

{{SF Star Systems}} provides easy navigation between all the star systems, making it easier to click through and look at things.
