+title: EarwigBot Progress: Page Editing
+description: Exactly what it says on the tin.
+---
+
+Because of [this](http://git.io/Nw-rLQ), doing this:
+
+{% highlight pycon %}
+
+>>> import wiki
+>>> site = wiki.get_site()
+>>> page = site.get_page("User:EarwigBot/Sandbox")
+>>> page.edit("I can has content?", "BOT: Testing new framework", minor=True)
+>>> 
+
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+...produces
+[this](http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AEarwigBot%2FSandbox&diff=prev&oldid=446401978).
+Clearly a MASSIVE DEVELOPMENT. 
+
+After 5,800 lines of code, 54 files, and over 200 commits, EarwigBot can
+actually edit Wikipedia!
+
+Yay!
