Each unit can be described with a set of standardized basic facts, the same set for all units.

Basic facts, preferably language-independent (numbers, coordinates, scientific names, …).

Open data bases exist that make the basic facts available in a standardized format.

Topics that have these characteristics include species of plants and animals, geographical features (towns, mountains, …), languages, chemical elements, astronomical objects, authors, and many others. The bulk of the existing bot-created articles is either about species or about geography.

The growth of artificial intelligence may open up new possibilities in the future. The Wikipedia movement is actively gathering structured information in a language-independent central repository (Wikidata), and is looking into the possibility of creating article text on the fly from repository information, whenever somebody searches for a non-existent article (Kaffee, 2016); a simple version is already being tested (MediaWiki, 2018).
