Sorry, I could not get the wikipedia summary for the wikipedia link mentioned in your comment.
:(
Sorry, seems like the link extraction regex is a bit broken. Will fix it soon.
Edit: Fixed. See your comment again.
:D
:)
Great job! What about mentioning the bot in the response to a comment that has a Wikipedia link.
Well, that wasn't something I have planned. For now, you can just take the wikipedia link from that parent comment, mention the bot with it and send it as a comment. Will implement that feature, thanks.
The way you mentioned the bot is wrong. Try @wikibot@lemmy.world
Mention work OK
Thought bot will show up on Kbin but didn't
There is some issues that some users aren't showing up on kbin.social but wanted to test it anyway.
Another user also using kbin got it to work though. Interesting.
Might be a federation issue. Could be related to LW still being on v18.5.0
Sorry, I could not get the wikipedia summary for the wikipedia link mentioned in your comment.
Does it work if i use Voyagers auto complete function for @‘s? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hello_Internet
I think bots like these should work without having to be mentioned since they're so useful and unobtrusive.

Could you elaborate further on that?
Like itd be convenient if they worked whenever someone included a wiki link. So people didn’t have to remember to mention its username
About that, well, read this conversation I had with another user that mentioned your idea:
Ohh ok that’s fair. I just feel like barely anyone will remember to use it
That indeed was my concern when I discussed this with the user that suggested this mention-only setup and also in the long text I sent to the user in the convo I sent you.
