 | This user account is a bot that uses PHP, operated by Rcsprinter123 (talk). It is used to make repetitive automated or semi-automated edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually, in accordance with the bot policy. The bot is approved and currently active – the relevant request for approval can be seen here. Administrators: if this bot is malfunctioning or causing harm, please block it. |

Welcome to the userpage of RscprinterBot. This is an automated programme which runs by itself under a Wikipedia user account to do set tasks. The tasks which are currently approved include reverting vandalism and test edits from articles, and removing article categories from userspace. It was first approved in November 2011 and is run by Rcsprinter123, who presses the go button, the stop button, and checks it for bugs. Admins: if the bot suddenly goes rogue, feel free to block it instantly! It uses a PHP script and AWB for its tasks. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask at the talkpage or read the FAQ. And finally – and this is very important – it is RscprinterBot; the other way round from the operator's name! |
