But I see prospective developers from time to time ask how they can contribute. This would be something that does not require intimate knowledge of MediaWiki internals, so I'd say give it a try. "The person creating it would have to be *very* trusted and their bot code vetted for security purposes." I wonder, many developers write applications which will need to run in a secured environment, so much so that they don't get access to the live version themselves. They test it on a fake account. Standard practice. Yes, an audit would be wise. Erik Zachte
