Thank you for participating in my RfA
I just wanted to take a moment to say "thank you" for taking the time and effort to participate in my recent RfA. As you may know, the discussion closed 66/0/1 and I'm now a holder of the mop. I will keep working to improve the encyclopedia and appreciate the trust which you have placed in me. - Dravecky (talk) 00:19, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Edit summaries
I saw here that you consider edit summaries important. I've run into situations where I am adding a subst:... template that includes its own subject header to a discussion page. When I use "new section" I have to leave the subject/headline blank, which means no edit summary. Sure, I could edit the previous section or the whole discussion page so I can make an edit summary, but I was wondering if there was an easier way. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail)  03:14, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I advocate a near universal edit summary usage. That is a situation where I wouldn't really care, but, I did a little test, and if you place a space in the headline, it produces an edit summary like this, which does explain that you are adding a new section to the page actually, now that I look at it, it is no good as it produces a section header as well, so I'll stick with my first statement; nothing can be done about it, so it doesn't really matter.

What a pleasant surprise, Foxy Loxy! Thank you. If anything, you constructed a bot to maintain Opentasks and deserve an award more than I do! Cheers! --PFHLai (talk) 17:00, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: AfD closures
Well, in a case where deletion is out of the question, discussion to merge should generally take place at the article's talk page. Cheers, –Juliancolton Happy Holidays 01:02, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Nah, it should be fine. I didn't see your closures, but it couldn't have been that bad. :) –Juliancolton Happy Holidays 01:05, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh I didn't close them, I just relisted :-) Foxy Loxy  Pounce! 01:07, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah, that's fine too. Cheers, and thanks for helping out at AfD. –Juliancolton Happy Holidays 01:10, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

My bot request
It seems that MrZman's stated concern is actually not a problem. This was discussed tonight in IRC, and MzMcBride (very knowleddgeable on the subject) says API would be a acceptable way to go for this. He has a script that hits the API over 2.5M times in a run, and it does not cause any problem. I would really appreciate your help with this bot, and I think it will be very useful.
