The bot will also create a page listing reviews for each participant in the drive (for example, my page would be WikiProject Articles for creation/January 2023 Backlog Drive/Participants/Ingenuity. &mdash; Ingenuity (talk &bull; contribs) 21:00, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

 * @Xaosflux: I've run the bot for the first time, you can see the results at Special:Contributions/IngenuityBot. Should I keep running it until the 50 edits are up? &mdash; Ingenuity (talk &bull; contribs) 15:08, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Just hit the 50 edit mark, so I'll hold off on running it again until it's approved. There have been a couple bugs with it, but I've fixed the code and it's working fine now. &mdash; Ingenuity (talk &bull; contribs) 15:28, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

happy with this being approved / the logic being fine? ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 17:17, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
