Automated message to bot owners

As a result of discussion on the village pump and mailing list, bots are now allowed to edit up to 15 times per minute. The following is the new text regarding bot edit rates from Wikipedia:Bot Policy:

Until new bots are accepted they should wait 30-60 seconds between edits, so as to not clog the recent changes list and user watchlists. After being accepted and a bureaucrat has marked them as a bot, they can edit at a much faster pace. Bots doing non-urgent tasks should edit approximately once every ten seconds, while bots who would benefit from faster editing may edit approximately once every every four seconds.

Also, to eliminate the need to spam the bot talk pages, please add Wikipedia:Bot owners' noticeboard to your watchlist. Future messages which affect bot owners will be posted there. Thank you. --Mets501 04:23, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Pending deletion script. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Pending deletion script~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Deletion Policy

Is this bot still active? Deletions aren ot supposed to be done by bots. Having reached the 10 days on the pending deletion list is not a reason to delete--the deleting admin must consider the matter and take full responsibility for the appropriateness of the deletion DGG ( talk ) 06:08, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This bot existed for a one-time cleanup job – a mistake made by the developers meant that admins couldn't delete pages at all, and so we tagged pages which were supposed to be deleted with {{pending deletion}} until the bug was fixed (at which point this bot went and did all the deletions that had queued up while the deletion mechanism wasn't working), and the delay was 10 seconds, not 10 days. Note that this "pending deletion" mechanism is different from the proposed deletion mechanism, which has a similar name but quite a different purpose. The bot is unlikely to be revived again, unless the page deletion mechanism somehow ends up breaking again. --ais523 03:41, 24 June 2022 (U T C)
