Function overview: The bot will deliver Santali Wikipedian user messages based on requests from a web interface. These requests will be checked manually before running. Trusted users will be marked as 'confirmed' on the website, and will be able to review other people's requests, as well as their own.

Edit period(s): Hourly, or on demand (if there are checked requests waiting to be delivered).

Estimated number of pages affected: Depends on how many requests are made, currently I really have no idea so cannot make an estimate.

Exclusion compliant(Yes/No):''' Yes

Function details: Anybody will be able to request a delivery here. The requests will checked before the bot runs them. Regular users can register on the website, and once verified by me or another administrator will be able to help check requests, as well as checking their own. The bot will normally run once a day at a non-peak time to deliver all checked messages. If a message is marked as 'urgent' then the bot may be manually started to run out-of-schedule to deliver that message. Feel free to look around the interface to see how it works, most of the functioning should be fairly self-explanatory. Feel free to submit test requests, I won't check any of them so none of them will run. If you would like confirmed user status to look at the restricted parts of the interface then drop me a message on my talk page or talk to me on IRC. If I do give you checked user status please note that the bot IS completely functional, so if you verify a request it WILL run (at midnight UTC), so make sure you unverify it, since the bot is not approved yet.

Discussion
In case any of you are wondering why I didn't request this as a new task for user:ᱵᱤᱨᱢᱚᱞ, it's because this bot will, in a sense, be operated by multiple people, since any trusted user could verify a request and the bot would run it, even without me seeing what goes on. Although I realize that I am still responsible for the bot's actions I didn't want it to have my name in its username, since that would imply that I am the bot's only operator. This is very important.ᱵᱤᱨᱢᱚᱞ (talk) ᱵᱤᱨᱢᱚᱞ
