As a note for bot approval – we'll need it approved by a admin/bureaucrat before this will occur of revert vandalism every 12 hours. -- Allen (talk to me! / ctrb / E-mail me) 01:04, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

If you had read and understood WP:BOTPOL, you'd already know this has zero chance of succeeding unless you yourself first had admin and 'crat rights. Based on that, the lack of proper detail on what exactly the bot would do or how it would work, and the general lack of coherence in this request, it's clear to me that you're not ready to be a bot operator.
