 * This is OK to trial, edits are limited to Wikipedia:, Wikipedia_talk:, and the bot's own User:/User_talk: pages and subpages. Please post the results of your trial here when done testing. —  xaosflux  Talk 10:50, 18 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks. When do you want to do a trial? I will arrange a few people to help do a trial.♦ Dr. Blofeld  16:54, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

I did some test edits and improved the code a bit. emijrp (talk) 09:09, 28 October 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm expecting this will be low-volume, do you need a bot flag for this? (Do you want to avoid the edits in recent changes/watchlists for 'hidebots'?) — xaosflux  Talk 14:41, 28 October 2017 (UTC)


 * I think it is better with flag, edits will happen hourly over a month. emijrp (talk) 15:26, 28 October 2017 (UTC)


 * low-volume, non-article impacting - no fuss, no muss. — xaosflux  Talk 15:36, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
