 * Initial trial approved. — xaosflux  Talk 01:14, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Done, everything worked as expected: -  F ASTILY   06:19, 8 June 2016 (UTC)


 * In Special:Diff/724275957, you dated the file as tagged today, but it was actually tagged two days ago. I guess this doesn't matter, though. Shouldn't a date also be added to the files in Category:Wikipedia files with a different name on Wikimedia Commons as of unknown date? --Stefan2 (talk) 10:00, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
 * The bot is scheduled to run daily when approved, so there's no point in writing complicated (and error-prone) code which attempts to resolve supposed tag date. Category:Wikipedia files with a different name on Wikimedia Commons as of unknown date is not part of this task, because of low demand (very few files have a different transferred name on Commons) and because it'll require separate logic (e.g. parsing the  template).  I'll consider doing this in the future if there is a demand for it. -  F ASTILY   23:17, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Hm. What happens if a file in Category:Wikipedia files with the same name on Wikimedia Commons as of unknown date uses the  or   parameters? --Stefan2 (talk) 12:40, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
 * There's no other active bot adding to any pages, and I'll be filtering reviewed files based on Category:Wikipedia files reviewed on Wikimedia Commons -  F ASTILY   18:05, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

If there are no other objections, could this be approved please, thanks. Also, ping for @Xaosflux. - F ASTILY   23:34, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
