[edit] Instructions
[edit] Before posting here
If there is a bureaucrat on the local wiki, please ask them to fulfill your request using Special:UserRights on the relevant wiki. Before requesting access here, make sure to obtain consensus on the local wiki if there is a community (see the index of request pages). If there is no local community, request on this page with a note to that effect.
Remember to read the local project's bot policy. This should be linked from the local bot request page; a few are listed below. DO NOT post your request here without having fulfilled the local policies first, and having waited for at least a week to gauge community opinion.

[edit] Making a request
Please include the following information in your request:
- the bot owner,
- the bot account,
- the wiki project on which you ask for bot status,
- a link to the local announcement page,
- and be sure to indicate that you have gotten community approval (if there is no community, please indicate that).
If anything is missing from your request, a steward will request more information. Please don't skip the last point even if there's no community on the project, or there's no announcement page— if that's the case, just be bold and make one! You may use this template as a starting point for a bot policy and request file.
To an add an entry, please copy and paste the text below into the appropriate section. Please do not replace spaces in the username by underscores.
