TonyBot
Operator: Tony Sidaway
Automatic or Manually Assisted: Manually assisted, supervised
Programming Language(s): Chicken Scheme
Function Summary: Functional programming language query interface to Misplaced Pages for general use.
Edit period(s) (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): Daily, at discretion of operator
Edit rate requested: 1 edit per minute.
Already has a bot flag (Y/N): N
Function Details: This bot will provide an experimental lisp-like functional programming interface to information about Misplaced Pages pages, edits, and users. The aim is to make it easy for users to produce lists of information they need to maintain Misplaced Pages. An example, unions and intersections of categories could be produced by a suitable query. Another query could be used to compile statistics about edit rates to a set of pages in a category. The bot will apply code execution heuristics to guard against over-use of the wiki and production of excessive amounts of output. All output will be in TonyBot's userspace, and communication with registered users will be via pages in their userspace, with an option to send copies of the results to the user's verified Misplaced Pages email address.
