 | Here to inquire about why the bot tagged a page?
The bot finds articles to tag using a list of categories provided by the WikiProject. If you would like to see the categories list for a project, take a look at the project's section on the requests page: a link to the category list should be present. If the bot tagged an article that clearly is not within a project's scope, feel free to remove the tag. If you notice it tagged an entire category erroneously, please leave a note on my talk page, or on the requests page in the project's section. |
Tagging process
The bot tags articles based on a list of categories provided by the WikiProject. On request, it can also:
- Automatically assess articles (see below).
- Untag another WikiProject alongside the run (useful when projects merge or change name, for example).
- Look for articles in sub-categories, as well as the main categories.
Autoassessment process
The following autoassessments can be done on request for WikiProjects, either alongside the tagging of more articles, or on already tagged articles.
- The bot can assess articles with a {{stub}} template on them as stubs. It will mark these with
|auto=yesfor human review. - The bot can assess articles below a certain length as stubs. It will mark these with
|auto=lengthfor human review. - The bot can assess the importance of an article based on the category it is in. It will mark these with
|autoi=truefor human review. - The bot can inherit ratings from other projects. It will mark inherited ratings with
|auto=inheritfor human review.
- Optionally, it can skip the marking for human review if the rating is an indisputable one (Disambig, List, FL, GA, or FA).
- The inheriting can be done in three styles, shown in the table below.
only one rating available two or more available auto-stub/inherit conflict liberal 
if only a single rating is available
most frequent (highest when tied)
default if only a single rating is available
if they all agree
do not assess
