Wiki-Bot is a bot with the purpose to easily link and search MediaWiki sites like Wikipedia and Fandom wikis. It shows short descriptions and additional info about pages and is able to resolve redirects and follow interwiki links. Wiki-Bot also provides wiki account user verification and recent changes feeds.

Change the server settings for Wiki-Bot using the dashboard: https://settings.wikibot.de/

User Verification

Using the !wiki verify <wiki username> command, users are able to verify themselves as a specific wiki user by using the Discord field on their wiki profile. If the user matches and user verifications are set up on the server, Wiki-Bot will give them the roles for all verification entries they matched.

Using the !wiki verification command, admins can add up to 10 verification entries on a server. Every verification entry allows for multiple restrictions on when a user should match the verification.

• Channel to use the !wiki verify command in.
• Role to get when matching the verification entry.
• Required edit count on the wiki to match the verification entry.
• Required user group to be a member of on the wiki to match the verification entry.
• Required account age in days to match the verification entry.
• Whether the Discord users nickname should be set to their wiki username when they match the verification entry.

Recent Changes Webhook

Wiki-Bot is able to run a recent changes webhook by using the !wiki rcscript command. The recent changes can be displayed in compact text messages with inline links or embed messages with edit tags and category changes.

Requirements to add a recent changes webhook:

• The wiki needs to run on MediaWiki 1.30 or higher.
• The system message MediaWiki:Custom-RcGcDw needs to be set to the Discord server id.

Setup

After inviting Wiki-Bot to your server you need to set the wiki you want to search by default. You do this with the !wiki settings command or by using the dashboard.

• Change the wiki with !wiki settings wiki <url>
• Example: !wiki settings wiki https://minecraft.wiki/
• Change the language with !wiki settings lang <language>
• Example: !wiki settings lang German
