Blocking

This account has been temporarily blocked from editing because it appears to be running a bot script without approval. This is in violation of Wikipedia policy. All automated or semi-automated scripts must be approved by the Bot Approvals Group to ensure that they are performing safe and useful functions, and are not abusing system resources. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below.

  • I contacted the blocking admin and advised the operator to write a paragraph about the bot's tasks or general usage to show it's a legitimate account before unblocking. - Mgm|(talk) 11:42, 24 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
OK, you're right. I thought it was editing other users' talk pages. But we saw this thing running and didn't know what its goal was, nor was it requesting approval. Knowing the goal would be nice. Daniel Case (talk) 15:01, 24 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
