Bot requests

If you have a bot request, add a new section using the button and tell exactly what you want. To reduce the process time, first discuss the legitimacy of your request with the community in the Project chat or in the Wikiprojects's talk page. Please refer to previous discussions justifying the task in your request.

For botflag requests, see Wikidata:Requests for permissions.
