User talk:SenseiBot

January 2020
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "SenseiBot", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it contains the suffix "-bot", which is generally reserved for authorized bot accounts. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. N.J.A.  &#124; talk  20:47, 28 January 2020 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, SenseiBot, contains the suffix "-bot", which is generally reserved for authorized bot accounts. You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
 * Adding below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" on their talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Changing username.

If you think that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. The SandDoctor Talk 02:25, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Dear User:NJA and User:TheSandDoctor, I (User:SenseiAC) indeed created this account, on the French Wikipedia, with the aim to train a bot. This is explicitly mentioned on the French Wikipedia user page of "SenseiBot". I have unfortunately not have yet much time to work on developing this bot, but as the account name indicates, the goal is indeed that "SenseiBot" becomes an approved bot. At the beginning at least, this bot would work only on the French Wikipedia, especially on astronomy-related articles (where such a bot would greatly help us for various works). I don't plan to use this account on other linguistic versions (including the English Wikipedia) in the short term. I am really sorry I didn't answer you before, I completely missed the January message, otherwise I would have already explained you the situation at that time. Please let me know what I should do now. Best regards, SenseiAC (talk) 03:00, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I've unblocked the bot. Thank you for the message. Obviously, if it does branch out here a local bot request for approval will have to be filed and approved. Thank you again for the response and my apologies for the hassle. If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know. Best, The SandDoctor  Talk 03:05, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
