Bot

Hi! Not sure I understood your comment here ↗. But if you want a botflag, it's probably easier to get one over at https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Polygnotus (talk) 05:11, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

:Interesting, but I don't see what it would demonstrate because an LLM would be more likely to allow an agent to "operate" in a test environment than on enwiki proper. What do you think? NicheSports (talk) 05:16, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
::Not sure tbh, but it might be worth testing it. If it works there then its more likely to work here as well. And BRFA here is a lot more involved than on the testwiki. Polygnotus (talk) 05:36, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
:::{{tqq|If it works there then its more likely to work here as well}} - technically yes, but given P<small>(works on test wiki)</small> is very high, not sure how much signal it would have. But you're probably right. We'd need to test three times (Anthropic, Gemini, OpenAI) and we'd have to run the tests "sterile" - i.e. give the agent no context that we are running a test - which would take some thought. Could be good to practice before running here NicheSports (talk) 05:48, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
::::Yeah I was thinking along the lines of, if you have a working proof of concept then that might make a BRFA smoother and easier. And over there getting a botflag is just a matter of a polite request and a promise not to break stuff if I understand correctly. Polygnotus (talk) 06:05, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

::::::I expect the BAG members ↗ to also have opinions on LLMs. {{smiley}} Polygnotus (talk) 06:13, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
