In Case of Emergency

If GuyBot is causing problems, immediately make any kind of edit to its talk page:

User_talk:GuyBot.

This will make it pause itself until the problem can be sorted out.


Intro

GuyBot is a little pet project of mine for editing wikis. I built it from scratch a few days ago, and basically re-built it from near-scratch tonight. It's set up as an API now, so I can write programs to do just about anything and interface it with the wiki.

New features include some things that Sekoia mentioned: an edit timeout and talk-page abort trigger. If GuyBot is making problems, make an edit to its user page and it will stop. It will also wait for a given length of time between edits to that people supervising its activity have a better opportunity to catch potential problems before they cause any harm.

I will continue to upgrade the software, and any questions, comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
