Forum:Bot flag

How can a user be marked as a bot? From what I read here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bots it should be done by adding a "bot flag", but I didn't find the place where the bot flag should be added.


 * The bot flag can only be applied by staff, currently. Just request it from one of the Community support (or ask here, now that we're here). Usually a good idea to have the founder or community's permission/support. --Splarka (talk) 10:02, 12 December 2006 (UTC)


 * I would like a bot flag for username: "Erel Import Bot", for this Wikia: http://he.judaism.wikia.com/ . It is coordinated with that Wikia's founder Ori229 . --Erel Segal 10:34, 12 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Okay, I've done this. As Import is a sysop action I've left the sysop flag, but bots should usually not be sysops in the long term. --Splarka (talk) 10:46, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
