Time filed: 14:18, Sunday May 6, 2012 (UTC)
Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic
Programming language(s): Python
Source code available: Standard pywikipedia
Function overview: Updating the league tables and match results for the 2012 Kenyan Premier League, the 2012 FKF Division One, the 2012 Kenyan Women's Premier League and their future seasons.
Edit period(s): Every 4 days
Estimated number of pages affected: 4 pages per year
Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes
Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): No
Function details: I intend for the bot to update the details of the league table and the match results of the 2012 Kenyan Premier League (source here), the 2012 FKF Division One (Zone A source here, Zone B source here), the 2012 Kenyan Women's Premier League (source here) and their future seasons to reduce tediousness and free up time to perform other tasks on Wikipedia. I, and other users who may edit these articles, will not always be available to update the details and this would make the articles outdated and therefore wouldn't be of much help to readers.
Comment. - 4 pages... That could be done manually. --Tomtomn00 (talk • contributions) 15:42, 6 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the concerns about coding skill above, however as this is a very low risk task Approved for trial. Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. If possible, could you please post the source code onwiki? --Chris 13:06, 7 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If you want to run a bot, you have to either run a well-tested and more importantly maintained code/framework or write it yourself. That is, you should be able to read and modify the code. I see you requested this task on Wikipedia:Bot requests#DavykamanziBot and you want someone else to write the code for you. You also note that this might take "extremely long" (by which time this BRFA will be long expired), which among other issues makes me think you do not quite understand how this works. I am inclined to close this request until someone else makes a bot for it, or you code one yourself once you are ready. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 16:27, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
