Permission to use AutoWikiBrowser
Hi, can I use AWB on this wiki to fix typos? I used to do this before permission separate to enwiki was required here. I'm familiar with using AWB on enwiki and other websites. Rubbish computer (discuss • contribs) 18:58, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
Support I haven't been around that long, but Rubbish computer has a proven track record of improving Wikibooks since 2015 according to their user contributions page, and they used the tool without apparent incident before. Seems like a good idea to me. --Mbrickn (discuss • contribs) 19:59, 29 July 2021 (UTC)- Actually we don't have a formal requirement to request permission, but we do prefer people to be Reviewers so that their edits are autoreviewed. As you are a Reviewer, I'm fine with your request. QuiteUnusual (discuss • contribs) 21:28, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
Hi QuiteUnusual, if I add my name to Wikibooks:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPageJSON, would that enable me to use it? And if so is it ok if I do so? Cheers, Rubbish computer Ping me or leave a message on my talk page 12:14, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

AWB usage
Hi, I had AWB enabled under my old username. I've changed username from "Rubbish computer" to "Alextejthompson". I had AutoWikiBrowser permissions enabled on my old account, but it hasn't carried over to my new one. I am planning on looking to fix common typos. Am I ok to use AWB here for that? Have any rules changed? Alextejthompson (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 15:14, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Alextejthompson:, you can update the AWB page with your new username. We tend to be lax on this. Leaderboard (discuss • contribs) 17:28, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
