Hi folks,
sometimes I found sth. like {{nobots|Xqbot}} which is similar to
{{bots|deny=Xqbot}}. Maybe it should be implemented (I've done it for my
working copy).
An other idea I've tested on my working copy is {{nobots|<scriptname>}} which
could prevent running some scripts on a given page like interwiki but enables
other bot scripts working.
Greetings
