WPArkansas Bot
Operator: Chetblong Talk / ARK

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Automatic

Programming Language(s): AWB

Function Summary: This bot will auto tag talk pages as stubs, and add them to WikiProject Arkansas, that are in Category:Arkansas stubs and it's subcategories.

Edit period(s) (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): Weekly most likely, but may be longer if I go on a Wikibreak.

Already has a bot flag (Y/N): N

Function Details: I have AWB set to prepend  to the talk pages in the categories mentioned above. And it will auto skip any talk page that already has the words "WikiProject Arkansas" on it.

Discussion

 * Looks good to me seeing as the category in question only has subcategories with articles (i.e. the category tree only goes one level down).  RichardΩ612  Ɣ ɸ 20:41, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Just so you know the categories that I make the lists out of will be manually looked over to make sure there are no mistakes like in TinucherianBot's case. -- Chetblong Talk / ARK 21:03, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Also, look out for the redirect WPArkansas if anyone still usues it. §hep   •   ¡Talk to me!  20:54, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Already added that in the auto skip. -- Chetblong Talk / ARK 20:57, 6 July 2008 (UTC) I instead deleted the redirect, as it is currently not in use. -- Chetblong Talk / ARK 21:07, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Reversing myself, no consensus has been established for the proposed amendment to the bot policy. BJ Talk 02:22, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

contingent on promise of no recursive catting.  MBisanz  talk 03:09, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
