Hallo!
I'm needing a list of all active Wikipedia bots in all language versions
in order to judge how important the edits are which I read from the
table `revision' from databases like `dewiki_p'. I want to discriminate
bot-edits from other minor edits by checking if the corresponding user
name is that of a bot.
I could, of course, extract the names of all bots from HTML by parsing
the page about `All Wikipedia bots'
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:All_Wikipedia_bots
But very likely there's a much more convenient way, like an sql table
containing the bots.
(The list of bots running on the Wikimedia Toolserver
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipedia_bots_running_on_the_Wikimedia_Toolserver
contains to few bots for my purposes.)
Best
Philipp
