Gpvosbot

Please grant bot status to these accounts. I am already running with a bot flag on af, da, eo, fr, it, la, nl. On eo, la and nl I do all kinds of tasks, on the other wikis it's mostly inter-language links. – gpvos (talk) 22:23, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Please grant bot-status on de.wikipedia to Gpvosbot, see positive responses on de:Wikipedia:Bots#Benutzer:Gpvosbot. Thanks. --:Bdk: 22:26, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Done. Are there any more pending requests for this bot? Jon Harald Søby 12:15, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
On es: I got a negative reaction; I am not pursuing bot status there any further. On ru: there has been no reaction at all (see the link to the archived request above); you metas may decide whether that's good or bad. :-) That's it. Thanks for the folks on de: who took the time to check my edits! – gpvos (talk) 14:31, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Note: The bot will be used in Lithuanian wikipedia only, where it is running for the long time and is accepted by the community of that project. If more exactly, the policy, implemented by the bot, was first accepted in community, and after some time of manual work it was automated by writing the bot.

Thank you. Chlewey 18:31, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

From that text there on s:es:Wikisource:Café#Sobre bots it is not clear to me of this bot has community approval or not. There are not yes/no sections or so. Can you put some explicit notice on that page in English there if it is approved? --Walter 23:31, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
There is still some discussion. I will ask a sysop to publish a clear answer. Also:
Solicito no otorgar status de bot por el momento. Las tareas a desarrollar aún no han sido aprobadas por la comunidad. Please don't grant status bot for the moment. The bot task are not approve for the community. LadyInGrey 02:29, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

rejected. invalid request.
  • Go to DE wikipedia and ask and get bot-status permission there
    • after you have it come here and ask for bot status on Meta. Put it on the top of this page. Give a direct link to the page and section where the steward can find the explicit permission granted by that wikipedia. Link to the user account of your bot on that wikipedia
  • do the same for EN wikipedia.

It is of a special relevance to run it on bg because of the change of capitalisation.. All interwiki links are wrong at the moment. GerardM 13:56, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

en:User:KocjoBot

I'm requesting bot flag on :en WP (see request on :en). After ones week run, there were one problem with bot, but it was fixed. Regards, --Klemen Kocjancic 10:58, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Unsure if approval given yet. Asked for clarification at w:en:Wikipedia talk:Bots. Angela 10:43, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
I believe we're hanging fire until the bot's author tells us exactly what is going on - there's been some confusion understanding exactly what interwiki links the bot will be updating. Initially, we were led to believe that the bot would be updating five language's worth of interwiki links, but it transpires what the author intended was to have the bot updating all interwiki links on five Wikipedias. At the English Wikipedia, we have a policy whereby interwiki link bot's owners must understand the affected languages, so if the latter ends up being the objective here, then we may have a problem. Rob Church Talk 03:08, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

The bot is using standard python wikipedia interwiki.py script, so I feel that this is not a problem. As for misunderstandig: I'm using this bot on 4 (5 if :en would be approved) WP to change IW of all WP. Regards, --Klemen Kocjancic 20:10, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

You say it's updating the interwiki links for all languages? That conflicts with en-wiki's requirement that you understand the languages, I do believe. Might be best to hang fire a bit longer and see what people think back on en-wiki. Rob Church Talk 03:20, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Once more, I would like to request a bot-flag; the problems were resolved and bot has made it on this list. Regards, --Klemen Kocjancic 12:13, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

Question asked on the wikien-l for further feedback. Anthere 11:38, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

jbo:User:RobotJcb

I request botstatus on JBO.wiki for their request. Jcb 16:02, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

no request visible?? oscar 00:46, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
I left them a note. Jcb 16:04, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
Done --Walter 23:46, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
sorry, undone for now: first waiting for community support at jbo. oscar 00:42, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
The request was allready archived. You can read it here. Jcb 16:18, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
I don't understand. The only links you give are the user talk pages (of which one isn't even on the wiki in question). Is there a local village pump where the bot has been announced? Jon Harald Søby 18:17, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
This is the situation; nl:gebruiker:Jcb sometimes is active on JBO-wiki with his bot. He has receive a request from jbo:user:Piere on his talk page (see talk page) from Piere of JBO-wiki. Piere is one of the 2 sysops of JBO and the only bureaucrat there. Jcb has put a notice on the talk page of Piere (see jbo:User_talk:Pier#RobotJcb) on 26 december. Look at the RC of JBO. That is a near dead wiki. It is not incorrect to regard Piere to be able to speek in the name of the "community" for so far it exist.
I have informed Jcb that he could make a "Request for botstatus page" on JBO and ask it formally again there. I see in this case no problem in granting bot status directly. A new request to the "community" of jbo will only be for show. --Walter 00:48, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
a quote from the top of this page: "... but please remember - your bot must first be accepted by the local community". imo this means that if either community or support are missing, RobotJcb can still work on jbo as much as he wishes to, but (for now) simply without a botbit, meaning: without being concealed in the normal rc. a proper request is never "for show" but a serious matter, please don't start handing out permissions or botbits without conforming to policy. what's the hurry anyway? oscar 03:16, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
For me there is no hurry, I expect to do about one or two single botedits every month there. The only reason to apply for a botbit was there request on my talkpage. For me there is no problem. Jcb 17:53, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

pamwiki

Although it was not requested here, I made RobotJcb@pamwiki bot, because it was doing so many edits that Recent Changes was virtually unreadable, making it hard to see if anyone has spammed it. I hope there are no objections to that. Jon Harald Søby 18:14, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

if the community is ok with it: fine. if their was no community support, then it should be approved first according to the policy above, i am afraid. btw as an alternative for such situations it is imho also perfectly possible to (urgently) request bot-operators to slow down their bot to a more acceptable speed if they simply go too fast. oscar 21:10, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
The problem was not that my robot was to fast, it does one edit every few minuts, sometimes more than 10 minutes nothing. The problem at PAM.wiki was a lack of other edits. Jcb 13:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

s:User:Pathosbot

I request that s:User:Pathosbot get a bot flag on Wikisource, where I'm an administrator. The bot is already active with community approval, but the RC feed is becoming reasonably difficult to use; even with long intervals between edits, it far outpaces the relatively small community there.

Thank you. // Pathoschild 20:16, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

The community is now voting in Wikipedia:Bot/Autorizaciones. Superzerocool 03:43, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
The voting period for this request ends on mar 12th. --Ascánder 21:29, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
This bot, if authorized, will most probably run without bot status. (support: 18, against: 13, 5 supports explecitely asked no bot flag) --Chlewey 21:32, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
My understanding also is Mar 12th closing. The general feeling is that the bot should not run with a flag, and that's fine by me. My interpretation of what has been said, is that the majority are in favour of allowing the bot to run without a flag, specifically for the 342 articles for which I'm requesting authorisation - but there seems to be a core of editors who are against bots per se. So the closing administrator may need to exercise some judgement. I've put one example article es:Distrito de Bar-sur-Aube up by hand and added some material to it as an example of how these stubs might evolve. Dlyons493 Talk 21:34, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
The bot doesn't supported... here is a resume. Superzerocool 02:42, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

lad:User:Superzerocool

I request that lad:User:bot name gets bot flag on lad.wikipedia:

Thank you. Superzerocool 04:40, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Request rejected. Ask permission on the LAD Wikipedia for this, not on a user talk page of ES Wikipedia. --Walter 12:03, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
I'm the only active sysop in lad:, (because ILVI is missing), maybe Superzerocool request wrongly, but I talked with him and I decided give the autorization in lad. --Taichi - (あ！) 18:18, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
User Supercool has asked many times for bot-status. He should know by how it works. Doing from the first time the right way would have taken him only a couple of minutes and a steward the time for writing "done + sig".
Request still rejected. Make bot-request page on LAD, ask permission, use YES / NO section, put an start and end date on it and when he has local permission ask here again with a new request. --Walter 19:27, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

+ related comments about from talk page user:walter

Hi, I read the request of Superzerocool in Meta about his bot in lad.wiki; but in lad.wiki don't exist a page for request because the wiki is very small, exist 4 sysop: ILVI (bureaucrat), Auxlingua (bureaucrat), Yann and me. ILVI and Auxilingua are missed and Yann never had any edition; then I'm the only sysop active in lad. So, I prefer temporally receive request for bots in my discussion page; beacause no sense realize any votation, because I'm the unique active sysop in lad.wiki. I will stay for your answer.--Taichi - (あ！) 03:37, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

The fact that there no request page or (almost) no community is irrelevant. If there is no page yet then you make it. If there is no responds or only one vote in favour after one week (from you) so be it. Then is it fine. Just follow procedure and my instructions. --Walter 09:55, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
Excuse me, but ¿when exists this politic?. I don't find any politic about create for obligation a request page in any wiki. In some wikis as chamorro (ch:) don't exist sysop or active users; is some rare this rule. Please explain any reference about any aprobation of this rule and then I proceed. --Taichi - (あ！) 22:06, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
I do not intend to spend any more time on this subject. I have other things to do. Request rejected, case closed. Reapply when ready. --Walter 22:14, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
I think that is unfair and some egoist for you; trying create excuses and don't refer any decission of the comunity about this politic. I will notify about this.--Taichi - (あ！) 23:41, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

ru:User:BotCat

I'm requesting a botstatus for my bot. My plans is to do some work like ordering categories, templates etc.

Thanks you for assistance. --Panther 14:43, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi! Could you please add a link to a page where you have requested this bot to get a bot flag? Like the village pump or a bot request page (I think ru has a bot request page). Jon Harald Søby 18:31, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
We have no standard procedure to request a bot status, but I placed a message on our village pump. --Panther 20:21, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
Yes, ru-wiki have no bot request page. I have recommended ru:User:Panther to request bot status for his ru:User:BotCat here. --Jaroslavleff 05:10, 22 February 2006 (UTC) (ru:User:Jaroslavleff).

commons:User:Maksim-bot

For Upload file with { { GFDL } } from en:, eo:, ru:

Could you specify what project the bot should get status for, who you are, and the place it has been announced? Jon Harald Søby 16:28, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
The project: eo:Vikipedio:Laboro por robotoj#Eltrovado de senco.
Discussion in commons: commons:User talk:Maksim#please link images.
I noticed 2:07, 14 January 2006 Jon Harald Søby changed group membership for User:Maksim-bot@ruwiki from to bot. So Jon where are we with this anonymous request? Is it done for :eo and :en too? In this case, why not archiving the request. Thanks to update info or move to archive. villy ♦✎ 21:06, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
My request is for commons:Maksim-bot. Excuser me I, mistaken [ [:commons: ] ] and [ [:meta: ] ] (they both are for all languages) Maksim 15:15, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
The simplest, Maksim, would be to enunciate your request following the boilerplater request above at Requests_for_bot_status#Boilerplate_template_for_bot_requests. You will notice that the local request link should not be a user talk page but on [[:xx:Project:XXXXX]] model. Typically, for Commons: Commons:Village_pump should be the place for the local request. Thank you. villy ♦✎ 20:18, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
Well, but I will not request for a while. Maksim 06:46, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
Villy: Sorry for not replying, I didn't see this before now. The ruwiki request was just below this one, and was archived: /Archive/January 2006#ru:Участник:Maksim-bot. Jon Harald Søby 20:53, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Commons:User:David Benbennick

Commons:User:Dbenbenn will be uploading 3140 maps as Commons:User:David Benbennick in a few days. It might be nice to have the bot flag set on that account first. See Commons:User talk:Aurevilly#Bot flag. Dbenbenn 07:48, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Seems in order. Although you should clarify on its user page what its for ("I rarely use this account as a bot" should be changed). You beat me to it. =) Jon Harald Søby 07:52, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

nl:User:YorianBot

I request that nl:Gebruiker:Yorian gets bot flag on Wikipedia NL:

Thank you. 213.46.146.141 12:22, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

please do some testruns first, thank you. oscar 12:42, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
botbit granted. oscar 23:47, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

botbit revoked

Only 3 days after getting the bot-status he made 809 automated text replacement in less than 3 hours changing "Christendom" (Christianity) into "christendom". Most of these changes are unneccessary, in some cases it is an improvement and in dozens of cases it caused broken links or pages that can be considered as insulting. Having a overview of religions like this:

  • Buddhism
  • christianity
  • Hinduism
  • Islam
  • Judaism
  • Sikhism
  • ....

gives the impression that wikipedia shows respect for all religions except one.

A request to him the next day (here in Dutch) to check these changes have not been answered two weeks later. It is not clear if he read the request or not, but the longer we wait the harder it will be to rollback these unwanted changes. I just started doing so, but it took me an hour to check and correct the first 100, so it will take me like 8 hours before all is done. Best Regards, Robotje 12:22, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

botbit revoked for the moment. oscar 12:31, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
