Hi, I think this utility could be a useful aid in much of the maintenance work I'm doing, such as fixing CS1 errors and Harv/Sfn/ errors. Also, it may help me to search for common issues in the WP:AWSE list. I realise I'm still relatively new to the site, and you may prefer me to gain more experience before becoming AWB-registered. I am, however, professionally acquainted with similar utilities, and I fully appreciate the necessity of due diligence when using them. Any feedback is welcome. I'll keep a watch on the requests page. Thank you. Spartathenian (talk) 13:06, 5 March 2025 (UTC) Spartathenian (talk) 13:06, 5 March 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

Hello! I would like to request permission to use AutoWikiBrowser. While editing Wikipedia, I frequently check the Random Pages tool, and, sometimes, come across prose that contains typos or does not fully comply with Wikipedia's WP:MOS. I also frequently translate specifically Brazilian music-related articles coming across these same problems during translation. To help improve the quality of these articles and avoid tedious and repetitive editing, I plan to use Typos, General fixes etc. in AWB, but I will try to not heavily use it. I understand the importance of responsible editing and will review every edit I make rather than using the tool blindly. I will ensure that all changes adhere to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Thanks! Cattos 💭 23:25, 5 March 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
