Verification

The Wiki-bot can be used to verify the identity and link a discord user to a wiki user.

Overview

The person with Manage Server permission is able to set up to 10 (25) verifications, against which users will be matched. Users can then use the !wiki verify command to verify themselves. The Wiki-Bot will then assign specific roles to the user for every verification they matched. Users that are blocked on the wiki won't be able to verify themselves.

Criteria

There are a number of restrictions/settings that can be applied to a verification. Here is a list of them:

• The channel, in which !wiki verify can be used.
• The role that's assigned upon matching the verification (if there is one)
• The user group to be a member of on the wiki to match the verification entry.
• The minimal edit count on the wiki that's required to match the verification entry.
• The required account age in days to match the verification entry.
• Whether the Discord users nickname should be set to their wiki username when they match the verification entry.

Notices

Success notice

This notice is added to a successful verification.

Example

Thanks for your work on the wiki, you can now check out the #editors channel.

Missing requirements notice

This notice is added when the Discord user matches the wiki user, but they don't fulfill any requirements for roles.

Example

You need at least 50 edits for the @Editor role.

Functions and Variables

• $editcount – The current edit count of the user.
• $accountage – The current account age of the user in full days.
• $postcount – The current discussions post count of the user (only Fandom wikis).
• {{#expr: 1+1}} – Returns the result of an expression.
  • Supports only addition + and subtraction -.
• {{#ifexpr: 1 > 1 | if true | if false }} – Returns text depending on the result of an expression.
  • Supports <, >, =, <=, >=, !=, <> as well as and, or.

How to Verify

For Fandom and Gamepedia wikis, put your Discord Username and Discord Tag (For example, Wiki-Bot#2998) in Fandom/Gamepedia profile. See also Fandom help and Gamepedia help documents to see detailed procedure.

For Wikimedia and Miraheze wikis, you will receive a DM from Wiki-Bot, which will include a link to the wiki's OAuth authentication system. Allowing the tool will let Wiki-Bot know the username, user rights, and other data required to perform verification.

For other wikis, put your Discord Username and Discord Tag in Discord user sub page (in the form of Special:MyPage/Discord, for example User:MarkusRost/Discord).
