Considerations
[edit]- Use of XML
- If in the future, Wikipedia makes use of live data feeds, it would presumably be using XML to pull data from other systems (input), which would argue for using XML on the other (output/Wikibot) end as well, perhaps even allowing for unaltered pass-through of the XML data. Also, sites pulling info from both Wikibot and semantic-web sources would benefit from being able to use XML in both cases. Henin 19:13, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
- Tcl and it's associated regular expression language, SPARKSQL/RDF, Tk for interfaces on the user side (connected to Web, with buffers and local copy with CVS/Subversion/Other versioning - the more backup copies we have, the better). Tcl is very good at creating self-modyfing code and event driven code plus paralell and *distributed* processing of logic languages (symbolic). Language can be code, data and code-data about code or data at the same time, depends who (wytch kind of faerie) is reading. Also, Tcl syntax is extremely easy to learn. Can interface in very easy way to machine code, C, PERL and any other language of choice for specialized doings, but I think we would be able to do a faerie and faerie language in Tcl (and machine code) only - in Tcl everything is a string, program body can be modified while executed; without usage of elaborate hacks, simply by manipulating strings and namespaces (spaces that contain names - first law of faerie magic, "Names have no meaning. Yet, one can draw mana (power) from names". Mana is a transliteration of "name". Faerie language does not need exact spelling to get the meaning out of text or find relations, habitats (categories) and other entities of higher order - based on informational entropy)).

Autobot needs
[edit]Hi to all. I have an Excel table of All Spiders species & genera. Now I add it to Wikispecies manual, but it's too dumb. Could you help me to build adequate autobot and run it? --Arachn0 16:45, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
