Board Thread:News and Announcements on the Wiki/@comment-8043962-20151115114212

Hello! Recently, I've noticed more users visiting this wiki but many aren't understanding the data system. So, do you think it's a good idea to remove data pages? The data from the data pages could be put into the undefined infobox on the page. I've also thought about re-doing some of the categorization system to be less complex, but I'm not too sure.

To do this, I could use a bot. A bot is a ''piece of software that makes automated edits on a wikia and also helps human users to make semi-automated edits. Bots are most often used in short runs to make repetitive edits to many pages''.

The bot could be used for general maintenance tasks, categorization and more. However, a bot needs to be flagged so it doesn't spam the Special:WikiActivity page. For wikia to flag a bot, I need to create a public discussion on this wiki. So, yeah. Should data pages be removed and is the creation of a bot a good idea? Should data pages be removed? Yes No Should a bot be created for this wiki? Yes No
