I have a grammar checker, [[Wikipedia:LanguageTool|LanguageTool]], and if that's a thing, I would like a semi-automated bot flag.

And, please vote with either <nowiki>{{Support}}</nowiki> or <nowiki>{{Oppose}}</nowiki> like in the [[Halopedia:Featured|featured]]. [[User:EthanGaming117|EthanGaming7640]] ([[User talk:EthanGaming117|talk]])
:{{Oppose}} - I would like to see you do a number of normal substantial edits and have been here for a few months before I consider the request to use the tool. :) Gives ya time and experience to know how the wiki and its community functions.
:Also side note: Bot flags are for bot accounts, not for personal ones. When requesting to use tools, you wont get the bot flag unless its for a bot account. (We'll help ya with that if the time comes)
:For automated stuff its best to have very rapid communication with staff and users so I will say if the time comes where we allow it. We will need you to join our Discord server to ensure stuff is done right and we know exactly what you are doing during it.
:Thats my thoughts at this moment though.-[[User:CIA391|CIA391]] ([[User talk:CIA391|talk]]) 15:14, August 24, 2021 (EDT)
::Thanks, Chris. Very cool. [[User:EthanGaming117|EthanGaming7640]] ([[User talk:EthanGaming117|talk]]) 21:23, August 24, 2021 (EDT)
:{{Oppose}} - for the same reasons as given per CIA above. This was discussed in the Discord, and this view is more-or-less unanimous across the entire staff team. I'm also not sure why the added note was necessary, it was already pretty clear from what CIA wrote.

:{{Oppose}} - Everything CIA and Bacon said. Also, you have proved to be difficult to contact in regards to your edits, and have repeatedly been neglectful in checking your edits before (and even after) you submit them. Bots and bot-adjacent tools like grammar checkers can damage the quality/presentation of articles if not used with care.
