Hello Fabian,
For the French project (2015-10-12) :
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Bot/Liste
This page is updated by a bot : Bub's wikibot[1] (perhaps the code would
interest you).
An other list :
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Bot#Liste_des_bots_sur_la_Wikip.C3.A9dia_en_fran.C3.A7ais
If you need translation, ask me. French wikipedians' words are sometimes a
bit odd.
Yours sincerely,

Hi Fabian,
We recently did the same exercise for this paper: Even Good Bots
Fight [2].
Have a look at the data collection, where we explained how we made a
list of all bots.
Also re edit statistics, see Fig S1.
Happy to compare the lists and share data.
Best,
Taha

Wikistats knows about 8017 bot usernames according to
https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-ez/wikistats/csv_wp_main.zip
(cut -f2 -d, StatisticsBots.csv | sort -u | wc -l ). Given active editors
tend to complain a lot if they get counted as bots, a comprehensive list
should probably be a superset of that
one.

This is likely not news, so can someone enlighten me regarding what
brought about that sharp decline of bot edits?
The migration of interwiki links to Wikidata, which is very visible in
https://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/PlotsPngEditHistoryTop.htm .
There was also some statistic by WMF on whether active users had
"migrated" to Wikidata from other projects, but I can't quickly find it
now; maybe it was around the time of

.
