Flag arguments (simple flags or flags with parameters) can occur in arbitrary order but regular arguments are matched by stepping through the formlist in left to right order.
(For matching purposes, a flag argument is an argument that begins with a hyphen followed by any character except digits and '.'.) The new argument vector is passed to the action routine in the case of subroutine flags or recursively to a sub-parser in the case of sublist flags.
If there are no flag duplicates between different levels of the form tree then the structure of the tree is irrelevant; the user needn't be conscious of the command grouping or of the sublist names.

The policy outlines how bots may be used on Wikisource; bots which do not follow the policy may be blocked immediately until the operator has resolved any issues or non-compliance.
Any bot account on Wikisource must clearly and visibly contain the word "bot" to distinguish it from human editors; the most common forms are derived from the operator's username (such as Pathosbot, operated by Pathoschild), or using disambiguation style (such as Xenophon (bot), operated by Bookofjude).
After a week of reasonable operation, the operator may request that a bureaucrat grant the bot a flag.

Subroutine flags are used just like flags with parameters in \fIargv\fP, but they are specified and implemented differently internally.
For most types, \fIarg_parse\fP grabs as many arguments out of \fIargv\fP as the form can take up to the next flag argument (or the end of \fIargv\fP), but for subroutine flags and sublists, all arguments up to the next flag argument are grabbed and bundled into a smaller argument vector (call it \fIav\fP).
When explicit sublist selection is needed it is done using the sublist flag followed by the arguments for the sub-parser, bracketed with \fC-{\fP and \fC-}\fP flags.
