Does anybody have any experience with using Auto Wiki Browser on Wikia wikis? I've tried fiddling around but I keep getting errors of one type or another. The AWB FAQ states that:

You are also able to use other 3rd party wiki's, by entering the URL where index.php of this wiki resides. The wiki must support Query API and Bot API required by AWB. This means that it should have latest HEAD version of MediaWiki or something close to that.

Are these APIs enabled on Wikia?

Thanks for any assistance, Bobo12345 03:54, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

AWB usage is enabled on Wikia. Before a user can use the browser, he/she must be approved and listed on the AWB checkpage. All requests should be inquired at Wikia talk:AWB/CheckPage. G.He(Talk!) 04:11, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Could somebody important respond to my request at Wikia talk:AWB/CheckPage please? Bobo12345 03:54, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Not AWB, it may say AWB, but MWB is what works on Wikia. ~Dantman(talk) tricks May 23, 2007 @ 07:10 (UTC)


This last sentence just up here is not true. I've used AutoWikiBrowser a lot on fr.guildwars.wikia last week. But now, i have a problem. It want me to set up a check page here : [1]. Done! But it still say "user not permitted" when i log AutoWikiBrowser with my future bot account (i asked for the bot flag; still waiting). Did i've done something wrong ? — TůζipVõrζąx Talk 02:43, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
I'll try again now that bot tag has been granted. — TůζipVõrζąx Talk 19:37, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
