Discussion[edit]

Hrm. If I recall correctly, there was a big stink late last year about bots doing this. Do you remember where it was (so I can find a link), and what the consensus outcome was? Genuine curiosity, really. Daniel (talk) 02:02, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently not, and I agree that this seems relatively uncontroversial. Approved for trial (50 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. If another member of BAG knows of the above discussion and I was right the first time, please feel free to remove this approval, as you have my implicit pre-approval to do so.

Y Done I made ~100 edits because I ran into a few problems as I was going, but I've worked them out. Mønobi 17:50, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 Approved. All looks fine. Just provide Betacommand with source code as per you saying so via IRC. If posted onto WP, please link here aswell, even after archiving. —Reedy Boy 19:22, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
