Automate Wikipedia

Turn the repetitive Wikipedia work you do by hand (open an article, extract the infobox) into a workflow Writ runs for you, on your own account, on a schedule or on demand.

The Wikipedia tasks you repeat (open an article, extract the infobox, extract a table) are exactly the kind of work a computer should do. But Wikipedia only exposes part of it through an API, and the flow runs behind a login and dynamic pages. Wikipedia's API is open, but rendered infoboxes and tables are often easier to extract cleanly from the rendered page.

Writ closes that gap. Record the Wikipedia task once (or describe it to an AI session) and Writ runs it for you in a real browser, on your own account. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.

Each of these is a real Wikipedia action, captured into a workflow and run on your own account.

Workflows extract structured fields such as article title, infobox field, table row, last-edited date along the way: typed data you can route anywhere.

Pick whichever fits the task. All three produce the same workflow Writ can run for you.

Built on the same engine as the recorder and workflows, with 30+ step types.

The reason Wikipedia is tedious to automate is the same reason most tools can't. Writ handles it.

Wikipedia pages are public; Writ renders them in real Chromium to extract infobox and table data accurately.

On a schedule, on demand, or the instant something changes. You choose the trigger.

1. 1
   Build the Wikipedia workflow once

   Record the task, describe it to AI, or discover it from the network. Writ captures each step, including login and 2FA, into a workflow you can edit.

2. 2
   Run it on your terms

   Run it on demand, on a schedule, or fire it from a Monitor when Wikipedia changes. It runs on your own Wikipedia account, in a real browser.

3. 3
   Call it from anything

   The same workflow is a REST endpoint at /v1/wikipedia/run and an MCP tool, so your code, a no-code tool, or an AI agent can trigger the Wikipedia automation too.

Monitor Wikipedia for article edited, infobox field change, new section added and run your workflow the moment it happens.

Monitors check as fast as every 10s (10s on Enterprise). A detected change becomes a trigger that runs your Wikipedia automation in seconds. Monitor Wikipedia ▸

Automating Wikipedia for yourself and calling it from software are the same workflow. Once you have it, publish it as a REST endpoint at/v1/wikipedia/run and a matching MCP tool, so your code or an AI agent can trigger the Wikipedia task too.
