  1. robots.txt for http://www.wikipedia.org/ and friends
  2. Please note: There are a lot of pages on this site, and there are

  1. Misbehaving: requests much too fast:

User-agent: fast Disallow: /

  1. Sorry, wget in its recursive mode is a frequent problem.
  2. Please read the man page and use it properly; there is a
  3. --wait option you can use to set the delay between hits,
  4. for instance.

User-agent: wget Disallow: /

  1. The 'grub' distributed client has been *very* poorly behaved.

User-agent: grub-client Disallow: /

  1. Doesn't follow robots.txt anyway, but...

User-agent: k2spider Disallow: /

  1. Hits many times per second, not acceptable

  4. Allow: /


  1. Friendly, low-speed bots are welcome viewing article pages, but not
  2. dynamically-generated pages please.
  3. Inktomi's "Slurp" can read a minimum delay between hits; if your
  4. bot supports such a thing using the 'Crawl-delay' or another
  5. instruction, please let us know.
  6. There is a special exception for API mobileview to allow dynamic
  7. mobile web & app views to load section content.
  8. These views aren't HTTP-cached but use parser cache aggressively
  9. and don't expose special: pages etc.
  10. Another exception is for REST API documentation, located at
  11. /api/rest_v1/?doc.

User-agent: * Allow: /w/api.php?action=mobileview& Allow: /w/load.php? Allow: /api/rest_v1/?doc Disallow: /w/ Disallow: /api/ Disallow: /trap/
