When I filed my bot request for approval, I did not know whether AWB was exclusion-compliant. Now, I have found the answer. Put {{bots|deny=AWB}} on the top of any page that you don't want AWB to edit. See also: User:AnomieBOT/Nobots Hall of Shame.

The bot is approved and currently active – the relevant request(s) for approval or tasks can be seen here. Administrators: if this bot is malfunctioning or causing harm, please block it. |
 | This bot runs on Wikimedia Toolforge. It runs on the billsbots tool account (k8s-status · k8s grafana). Tasks 8 and 9 run exclusively on Toolforge. Tasks 3, 4, 5, and 7 run on both Toolforge and my PC. Administrators: If this bot needs to be blocked due to a malfunction, please remember to disable autoblocks so that other Toolforge bots are not affected. |

Tasks
[edit]Task 3 was converted from AWB to PHP. Tasks 3, 4 and 5 run hourly on my desktop PC, at the top of the hour.
