What does this unholy monstrosity, surely a creation of Man and not God, do, exactly? ħumanUser talk:Human 01:46, 1 August 2008 (EDT)

Builds a couple of indexes for use by other bots. "Indexbot" has special access to the database that lets it index the site with out doing a bunch of http requests. By making single page indexes my other bots that scan the whole site only need to make one page request and so keeps them from taking those resources. tmtoulouse oppress 01:52, 1 August 2008 (EDT)
