Timbot is
Tim Starling's new bot. It is a search and replace bot—it takes a list of article names and a
perl regular expression as input, and then runs a search and replace on each of them. Works in "trickle" mode, waiting a specified number of seconds between each request, as opposed to
Rambot's "burst" mode.
In keeping with Wikipedia policy, the source code is secret, however, it will be made available via email to well-behaved users if required.
