Situation taken care of. I originally blocked FANSTARbot (see Blocking policy and Bot Policy), and have now removed the block on FANSTARbot and the autoblock since you have been granted the +bot flag. Thanks! ~Kylu (u|t) 01:24, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

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 02:43, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Bot edits in User space

Please change your bot to avoid changing pages in User space. Some people don't want to interlink their various user pages, to try to minimize the chance of cross-wiki vandalism. - dcljr (talk) 02:36, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Query

I need help renaming about 200 articles. Doing this by hand would take me all day.

Can your bot rename articles, or be adapted to do so?

If so, please contact me.

Thank you.

FANSTARbot force flagged @ fiwiki

Hi, according to the current bot policy your bot is now force flagged for common benefit. You can now run your bot in the Finnish Wikipedia using an interval of 12 edits per minute (one edit per 5 seconds). If you have more questions, please see Notes for Bot owners. --Agony (talk) 11:25, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:22, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
