I would like to see a demo article of what the output of the bot will be. We 
can then discus ways to improve the content/format. 

Also from
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bots

For the current situation, the burden of proof is on the bot-maker to 
demonstrate the following: 
The bot must be useful 
The bot must be harmless 
The bot must not be a server hog 
The bot must be approved by someone
