To clarify, Lsjbot is/was a deterministic bot that would create stub articles about subjects functionally guaranteed to be notable (by whatever ceb.wiki’s standards are, which I think mirror ours on en.wiki). It would add basic information in a template format.
E.g. “Pissus shitticus is an X in the family Y. It was described in 1234 by Some Fucking Guy.”
The upside to this is that one of the hardest parts of making a good article is just having the article in the first place. Labor-wise it’s not difficult, but it’s a psychological thing.
The downside is that, unlike on en.wiki which already has its hands full with a couple million bot-created articles, ceb.wiki could not possibly ever hope to substantially complete 99% of these. So they’ll be stuck as shitty stubs that are little more than a verbose database entry for eternity.
I don’t think it’s a matter of “accepting” but rather it being mostly community maintained, and so languages with minimal communities get no moderation.
never knew wikipedia accepts bot generated text… what’s the point of doing that?
