Hi there. I made a bot account ([[User:XenonBot]]) to use a Python script to mass-categorize images (like the 207 Help images). However, it doesn't have the Bot permission, meaning it has a rate limit that prevents me from editing pages in a short amount of time. Can you give it the bot user group? Thanks. --[[User:XenonNSMB|XenonNSMB]] <sup>([[User talk:XenonNSMB|talk]], [[Special:Contribs/XenonNSMB|contribs]])</sup> 11:47, 17 June 2017 (EDT) | Hi there.

:Sure! [[User:XenonBot]] is now a bot and a patroller. Funny, I was going to use a bot categorize those images myself, but you beat me to it. (Thanks!) By the way, if you mass upload images in the future, you can use [[Special:BatchUpload/Foobar]] (for example) instead of plain old [[Special:BatchUpload]]. Whatever you put after the slash will be used as the name of a template to be added to the file's wikitext—in this case, the file's wikitext would be <code><nowiki>{{Foobar}}</nowiki></code>. Then you could either add <code><nowiki><includeonly>[[Category:Baz]]</includeonly></nowiki></code> to Template:Foobar or use <code><nowiki>{{Foobar}}</nowiki></code> as the find-and-replace target for your bot. | |||
