Whistler is a droid created and controlled (hopefully) by Xwing328 to perform mundane tasks on Wookieepedia. He is powered by the Pywikipedia bot framework. Despite what Corran may think, he tries not to be annoying. Whistler apologizes for any user/talk pages that may accidentally be changed during mass edits. If this happens to you (and bothers you), please leave a comment on the talk page.
