Wowpedia:Bot requests

This article is a list of bot requests. You can request massive repetitive changes on specific pages and a bot user might take care of it at some point.

Please note, for best results, requests must have a clear way to determine a set of pages on which the operation should be performed, and should not require review of each change after it is performed. Otherwise, it is a task best left to manual edits.

Requests

• Would it be possible to scan for the largest tables in the wiki, based on the length of a row between |- to the next |-, and mark these pages somehow under a new "Category:Big Tables" within Category:Things to do so they can be a focus for future compatibility?
