edit- Simple task,
{{BotTrial}}Richard0612 23:23, 8 February 2009 (UTC)- OK, the bot will actually make around ~60 edits per delivery. I will have to wait until Sunday until I can deliver the newsletter. The Helpful One 00:02, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
- Note, I have updated the task details, the bot will instead use a Python script, newsletter.py. The Helpful One 19:21, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- Approved for trial (65 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. Revising trial to encompass one entire run, stopping after 20 would be difficult given the editing speed of the script. Richard0612 20:04, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
