Because a bot is capable of making several edits per minute, it may clog up [[Special:RecentChanges|recent changes]]. For this reason, any authorized bot for Halopedia is required to have a bot flag. A bot flag is a [[Special:ListGroupRights|user group right]], and may be set on any account. Edits made by such accounts are hidden from the recent changes page by default. Accounts with a bot flag are listed [[Special:ListUsers/bot|here]].
