Discussion
Can you clarify what do you mean by Supervised/Manual? - Kingpin13 (talk) 06:43, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I mean automatic and semi-automatic use of AWB. - Stillwaterising (talk) 14:48, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

However, this is only for automated editing. Semi-automated editing, where you click a button for each edit, is not handled at BRFA.  MBisanz  talk 16:22, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
