Discussion

This, of course, updates AnomieBOT 18 and AnomieBOT 67. Assuming Legoktm restarts his bot, I don't intend to implement the "start adding each day's page" bit right now. But I'm asking approval to do that anyway, so I don't have to file yet another BRFA should AnomieBOT need to start doing it in the future. Anomie⚔ 23:41, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Seems straight-forward, tedious task, in underpopulated area of Wikipedia, experienced, communicative bot operator (in spite of the oops, whatever). Even if not implemented, approval would probably be okay. -68.107.137.178 (talk) 08:01, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Approved for trial (15 edits or 5 days). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. ·Add§hore· ^{Talk To Me!} 09:53, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Can we just use these as the 15 edits? [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Anomie⚔ 15:38, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why not? They're all recent enough. I checked a few, they look fine. I find it hard to check these ultra-tedious bot tasks, though, so maybe someone could run through all 15, but it looks good, imo. -68.107.137.178 (talk) 08:57, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Trial complete. It looks like people have taken the week off at PUF, no dates were completed during the five days. But see above. Anomie⚔ 11:13, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Approved. ·Add§hore· ^{Talk To Me!} 09:54, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
