== Account / Editing Policies ==

=== Sign Up ===

An account is required to create articles and make edits. [[Special:CreateAccount|Sign up for an account]] first.

=== 🤖 Bot Policy ===

Tool-assisted editing '''is encouraged''' - but certainly not required. I ([[User:Arclight|Arclight]]) personally use 
[https://github.com/ProfessionalWiki/MediaWiki-MCP-Server MediaWiki-MCP-Server] with Claude. [[User:Arclight/MCP instructions|These are the MCP instructions]] that I use for editing as an example.

To differentiate tool-assisted edits from human edits, we ask that you create a separate user account with "-Bot" at the end of the name. For example, if your username is Foo, you might name your bot "Foo-Bot". '''Never make tool-assisted edits from your human account!'''

Then,

# Go to [[Special:OAuthConsumerRegistration]]
# Register an OAuth 2.0 owner-only consumer with the necessary grants
# Copy the consumer key and secret into their MCP connector configuration
# Start editing!
