+**Pywikibot** is a Python library and collection of tools that automate work
+on `MediaWiki <https://mediawiki.org>`_ sites. Originally designed for 
+Wikipedia, it is now used throughout the Wikimedia Foundation's projects and
+on many other MediaWiki wikis.
 
-Pywikibot is a Python library and collection of scripts that automate work on `MediaWiki <https://mediawiki.org>`_ sites.
+The project started in 2003 and is currently on core version 6.1.0.
+It features full API usage and is up-to-date with new MediaWiki features and
+a Pythonic package layout. But it also works with older installations of 
+MediaWiki 1.23 or higher.
 
-Pywikibot supports Python 3.5+.
+Pywikibot supports Microsoft Windows, macOS and Linux when used with a 
+compatible version of Python. It should also work on any other operating
+system that has a compatible version of Python installed. To check 
+whether you have Python installed and to find its version, just type
+``python`` at the CMD or shell prompt.
