Please review the AWB guide before making a request. Users are rarely approved unless they have either {{WP:AWB/Non-automated mainspace count}} non-automated mainspace edits or {{WP:AWB/Mainspace count}} total mainspace edits. You can check your non-automated contributions on [https://xtools.wmflabs.org/autoedits XTools]. Administrators are automatically approved and do not need to request access. For bots, you must first have a bot approval request approved, or in trial; link to your BRFA in the request.{{pb}}This page is for requesting AWB Access for English Wikipedia only. Other projects have their own check pages and you should ask administrators there to add you.{{pb}}If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage. If you will make many or fast automated edits using AWB, you may wish to use a separate (or bot) account for that purpose; first create the account, give it a userpage declaring it to be your alternate account, then make the request using your main account.{{pb}}Please note that administrators may not ping you in replies, so please check on your request if you have not heard anything.{{pb}}Especially for new users, it is helpful (although not strictly required) to explain what specific task you intend to use AWB to do in your request. {{pb}} You do not usually need AWB access to:
- fix duplicate references (see User:Polygnotus/DuplicateReferences)
- fight vandalism (see WP:CUV/T)
- do category maintenance (see WP:CATALOT)
- rate articles (see WP:RATER)

Hello, I'm doing a lot of repetitive edits on articles, fixing typos, improving grammar and adding consistent info across pages, so I need AutoWikiBrowser to make the process smoother. I especially need it for pages related to railway stations and Chak villages, where I've been working on adding almost same information. - PunjabiEditor69 (talk) 17:38, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

I'm requesting AWB access to assist with cleaning up articles that include promotional or AI-generated language. I plan to use the tool to remove vague or non-neutral phrasing, apply templates like "advert" or "tone", and make general formatting, grammar, and maintenance edits more efficiently.
