Hi there
I would like to create a python bot whose task would be to correct typos and grammatical errors. :)
Where should I upload the script for the bot to work?
The bot would be active on Wikipedia in Serbian.
Sincerely N
For such tasks manual supervising is highly recommended, therefore the best place is your own computer. Pywikibot is able to do such tasks, see replace.py and fixes.py, you have to deal with the correction itself, not with creating bot. You may download Pywikibot and customize fixes.py or user-fixes.py.

You mean I can connect the replace script to my Wikipedia account?

Hey Vladimir,
Before starting to write bots, it's important to understand how they work: they are usually run under a dedicated account (but can be tested using any account) and YOU (the human running the code) are responsible for both the code and the results. I suggest you read the sr.wiki page on the matter [1] and a simple pywikibot tutorial [2] in order to understand the basics. While the tutorial does not explicitly describe the use of `replace.py`, it describes other similar scripts. Locally on sr.wiki, user:dungodung and others are able to provide guidance.
Best, Strainu

As far as I see I can test my bot on test.wikimedia before running it on Wikipedia. I know a bit of Python and how bots work. But I do not where to start. What would the first lines of code of my bot look like?

You can find A LOT of help pages here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot
If replace.py is enough for you (most likely yes for simple fixes), see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/replace.py
If you need more than replace.py, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/Create_your_own_script
HTH, Strainu
