PointBot

August 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. However, I noticed that your username (PointBot) may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it appears to represent an account used by an automated editing process, which requires separate authorization. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account to use for editing. Thank you.

Indeed it is intended to represent an account used by an automated editing process. Somewhere down the pipeline, I plan to register a bot, but for now I mostly created this account to make sure python can handle the api s and so forth. Without bot approval I will not use this account to make automated edits to any encyclopedia pages. Thanks for the concern though! PointBot (talk) 07:29, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
