This user account is a bot operated by [[:en:User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[:en:User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]]). It is a legitimate alternative account, used to make repetitive automated or semi-automated edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually. Administrators: if this bot is malfunctioning or causing harm, please block it. |
This template employs intricate features of template syntax.
You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with its setup and parser functions before editing the template. If your edit causes unexpected problems, please undo it quickly, as this template may appear on a large number of pages. You can conduct experiments, and should test all major changes, in either this template's sandbox, the general template sandbox, or your user space before changing anything here. |
{{bot2}} – An information box that indicates that the user is a bot. This template is an alternate visual style for {{Bot}} that makes the status more obvious and uses SVG icons, but takes the same parameters.
Parameters
- 1
- The first unnamed parameter specifies the operator of the bot.
- 2, 3
- The second and third unnamed parameters can be used to specify co-operators of the bot, if required.
- site
- The two letter code for those operators that do not have an account on the English language Wikipedia (though having a local account is strongly recommended).
- status
- active (and approved), inactive (but approved), trial or unapproved, globalbot
- awb
- yes (if this bot uses AWB), or omit (if it doesn't).
- codebase
- The name of the code (programming or scripting language) used to create the bot (e.g., Pywikibot, perlWikipedia, ...)
- brfa
- Optional if specified, overrides the name of the request for approval. If not specified, defaults to {{BASEPAGENAME}}
- by
- Optional if specified, overrides the usual display of the operator's username in the first line generated from the three unnamed parameters.
- approvalneeded
- If status indicated active/approved, or globalbot, setting yes will make the template indicate that the bot is running tasks for which no approval is needed.
- overridebrfa
- If the bot has multiple requests or approval, or multiple tasks, and the default BRFA link cannot link to a page that contains all the bot's approved requests or tasks, this field allows inputting a link to any Wikipedia page. Specifying this field overrides brfa.
- more
- Any additional information to specify in the inner status box. Usually not needed, since
|status=
,|brfa=
, and|approvalneeded=
covers most cases. - statusstyle
- Optional alternative CSS style for the inner status box. Do not put in quotes, but include the ending semicolon (e.g.,
boxstyle=background-color: #fff;
) - statusimage
- Optional alternative for the status image in the inner status box.
- image
- Optional alternative for default gear image.
- alt
- Optional alternate text for the main image.
