I don't see anything described in [[Manual:Bots]] that would actually help you detect bot editing traffic. What am I missing? Bots (or any high volume editing user) are typically asked to get specific rights on the wikis that they are interacting with but those on wiki permissions are associated with the wiki account and not the user agent.
