Bot types #7489
Comments
Hm, that one did not cover the questions above, in the end, although it did mention multiple feed bots, and it resulted in code for validating categories. I am, essentially, talking about cleaning up the types. |
I guess we don't have a "clean" definition of categories to use. Feel free to create a PR to clean them up a bit. |
I can add this to #7490. Or would a separate PR be better? |
@Simbiat It's better to have a separate PR, as that makes reviewing easier. |
Variable for bots

?Search tools
is used only for 1 item: http://www.shopwiki.com/w/Help:Bot. Again, description clearly states, that this is a crawler, so should this not beCrawler
?Security search bot
differ fromSecurity Checker
?Service bot
differ fromService Agent
?Search bot
fromCrawler
? I mean, crawling is done by search bots, so this seems to be the same thing.I am fine with creating PR to harmonize these things a bit, but I think this warrants a proper discussion first.
