Operator
Wikimedia
Wikimedia runs 6 bots across 3 agent types. Each one is a separate user-agent so you can allow or block them independently.
ArchiveBot is operated by Wikimedia. Competitive, marketing, or threat-intelligence data collection. Often crawls competitor pages, ad creatives, or pricing pages on behalf of a buyer.
Citoid is operated by Wikimedia. Single-page fetch triggered by a user action, link previews, social unfurlers, RSS readers. Volume tracks shares and clicks rather than crawl schedules.
Pywikibot is operated by Wikimedia. Single-page fetch triggered by a user action, link previews, social unfurlers, RSS readers. Volume tracks shares and clicks rather than crawl schedules.
Wikipedia Bot is operated by Wikimedia. Single-page fetch triggered by a user action, link previews, social unfurlers, RSS readers. Volume tracks shares and clicks rather than crawl schedules.
WMF Zotero Translation Server is operated by Wikimedia. Generic programmatic data extraction with intent that varies case-by-case. Worth checking the operator before blocking, some are legitimate research, some are abusive.
