Functionality now added, you can use either of $log comments or $sal comments, and whatever comments is will be added to the page. (This will take a minute even after the bot responds in the IRC channel.)

Ugh, I was just in the process of launching Void-bot with the added functionality when this issue came up again. I'll have to bypass the need for login, or something.

All I have to do is work the script into the bot and then deploy it. This will take a bit of fiddling, since the file structure where I host the bot is significantly different from where I've been testing it. (And I also need to make sure I can install Pywikibot there properly).

I've gotten far enough that I can do this using a custom pywikibot script. I now just need to make the java bot call the pwb script, modify a text file, and then call another pwb script. Shouldn't take too long now.

CentralAuth is meant for wiki farms to create a shared account database so that you have a single account across wikis. We are not a wiki farm. We are a single wiki. so it wouldn't really work.

Hey this isn't urgent.

I'd personally be willing to help out with locking in the future. Also I believe that checkusers can masslock spam accounts (good for sleeper hunting/mass stopping spambots/sleepers).
