You are not getting approved for 20 edits per minute. --uǝʌǝs ʎʇɹnoɟʇs 15:20, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

And why can't we just put a parserfunction in main to detect namespace and act accordingly? --uǝʌǝs ʎʇɹnoɟʇs 15:21, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's a good solution, redirect catmore to main and choose per namespace. --Emijrp 15:23, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
 * But there are catmore1 and catmore2, perhaps people prefer to conservate catmore like now. --Emijrp 15:24, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I would agree with Emijrp that we should change it, and I would also have no problem approving 20 edits per minute for such a task which has basically no potential of going awry. I'll wait to see if someone else wants to comment first though so I don't seem like I'm acting against consensus. — M ETS 501 (talk) 17:23, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Seems straightforward, though I see no exceptional urgency that would argue for any an edit rate outwith the normal range. (OTOH, perhaps said range should be recast in terms of maxlag-compliance, or the like, but that's a broader discussion.)  Alai 02:50, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

And... approved or no? --Emijrp 10:18, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

BAGAssistanceNeeded Approved or no? Dihydrogen Monoxide (H2O) 02:36, 14 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I think the only thing, is still the slightly too high edit rate...? 5-6 epm would seem fair Reedy Boy 10:24, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
