Hi,
I wrote a script that examines articles using fullVersionHistory(). How can I know if a version is edited by a bot or a human?

How do you know who is sitting behind the keyboard?
I presume you mean the bot flag on the change. This is only useful (and available) in context of the recent changes (see wikipedia.recentchanges() and wikipedia.newpages()) and is not available in the revision history of a page. Minor flag, for example, is present in both places (recent changes and revision history).

Bots are running, only humans can sit. :-)

Thank you for precising, that's what I mean.

This is not good to hear. For our purposes this flag would be very useful.
Some time ago I opened a bug about this on Bugzilla. It's still open

I found this one: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13516#c3 and https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11181 Did you mean these? Thank you, now I know that it is hopeless within a reasonable time.
