Please review the AWB guide before making a request. Users are rarely approved unless they have either 250 non-automated mainspace edits or 500 total mainspace edits. You can check your non-automated contributions on XTools. Administrators are automatically approved and do not need to request access. For bots, you must first have a bot approval request approved, or in trial; link to your BRFA in the request.

This page is for requesting AWB Access for English Wikipedia only. Other projects have their own check pages and you should ask administrators there to add you.

If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage. If you will make many or fast automated edits using AWB, you may wish to use a separate (or bot) account for that purpose; first create the account, give it a userpage declaring it to be your alternate account, then make the request using your main account.

Please note that administrators may not ping you in replies, so please check on your request if you have not heard anything.

You do not need AWB access to:

fix duplicate references (see User:Polygnotus/DuplicateReferences)
fight vandalism (see WP:HUGGLE and WP:UV)
do category maintenance (see WP:CATALOT)
rate articles (see WP:RATER)

Rename from "Sir MemeGod", which is already on the list. Planning on whittling away at Category:Talk pages with comments before the first section. E_F⁵ 20:30, 1 January 2025 (UTC) E_F⁵ 20:30, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I arrived here from WP:POSTMOVE, and it's not my first time needing to clean up wikilinks from a recently moved page. This tool looks like it could save me a reasonable amount of time having to redirect links post move. Thanks in advance. CNC (talk) 21:27, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya! A year ago I had AWB self-requested to be removed due to inactivity with it. Now, I think it's necessary for me to have this tool again to fix formatting issues and as part of the ongoing NPP drive. Thanks! ~ Tails Wx 02:59, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
