Discussion

I think this should be easy. What should the "edit rate" be? Alpta 20:45, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say maxlag is the best. However, are you sure as a new user you know what you are doing? Will there be a way for other users to turn off the bot? Will the bot follow a op in/op out system? ~ Wikihermit 21:25, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have looked at some other php bots (like ClueBot) and the bot will have a page to turn it off and on. It will follow the "op in/op out" system. It will use the maxlag feature. This is a new account, but I have watched wikipedia as an IP editor. Alpta 22:27, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have the source and it works too [1]. I am ready for a trial. Alpta 03:18, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds fine now -

I made 25 edits, but the robot has worked fine. [2] [3] [4][5] Alpta 14:45, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see no problems.
