+
+The source code for my Wiktionary bot, https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/User:KovachevBot. The purpose of the bot is to automatically generate Bulgarian derived form entries from nouns' declension tables. 
+You can peer into my abominable coding practices if you wish, and can verify that I won't try to obliterate the entire platform without compunction... I'd also like to apologise for naming the bot after myself, but the Wiktionary policy made me do it :x
+
+Please see the bot's user page if you need more specifics as to the purpose and function of the bot.
