Subject: Bot to put the same text on the same page on every wiki
Original description:
It should simply put the exact same text on the same page \(accounting for namespace localization\) on every wiki \(or some specified subset\). Should be easy to do for those knowing python. This would be useful to create template-like user/user talk pages, spamming messages cross-wiki, updating templates, updating blacklists \(for stewards\) etc. Mike.lifeguard | @meta 00:21, 28 July 2008 \(UTC\)
