[edit] Disambig of Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Biggoron Sword

I reverted the bot edits to this article; since part of the discussion on that page was about "what goes where" it doesn't seem appropriate to me to alter the pages that people were linking to in their comments. - RedWordSmith 15:44, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

You're right about this. It was a fully automatic change which should have excluded Wikipedia namespace pages; sorry about that. Derrick Coetzee 00:56, 18 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Category rename request for bot

I'm looking to rename articles in Category:Cults to refer to Alleged Cults because labeling an organization a cult is highly subjective (see Category Talk:Cults and the CFD entry. I'll probably add the request to another bot owners page or two so you might want to check that it hasn't been done yet. If you do get to it, please leave a message. --Antonrojo 01:29, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Hey, I'm afraid I haven't renamed cats before, so probably won't have time to figure out how to do this right now. Deco 03:12, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Automated message to bot owners

As a result of discussion on the village pump and mailing list, bots are now allowed to edit up to 15 times per minute. The following is the new text regarding bot edit rates from Wikipedia:Bot Policy:

Until new bots are accepted they should wait 30-60 seconds between edits, so as to not clog the recent changes list and user watchlists. After being accepted and a bureaucrat has marked them as a bot, they can edit at a much faster pace. Bots doing non-urgent tasks should edit approximately once every ten seconds, while bots who would benefit from faster editing may edit approximately once every every four seconds.

Also, to eliminate the need to spam the bot talk pages, please add Wikipedia:Bot owners' noticeboard to your watchlist. Future messages which affect bot owners will be posted there. Thank you. --Mets501 00:54, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
