Discussion

Two bots already exist for this.

I'll admit OQBot gets hung up sometimes, but I can't find the common factor that causes it. Q ^{T C} 21:29, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alpta, are their any problems in the other two that make you propose this bot? Or is is just an extra in case they both die? :-) Cbrown1023 talk 22:24, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see some problems. With the Uncle G bot the bot only runs once a day to reset the sandbox. The OQBot is good but it doesn't always reset the header like it is suppose to. OQBot only resets two pages also. This bot can, if it is needed, reset all of the different sandbox headers. Having a back up bot is also good. How often should the bot reset the sandbox? Every 10 minutes? or is 20 better? Alpta 04:22, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My bot can edit more pages, I just need to add them to the config. It only edits the two listed since that was all that was BRFA'd Q ^{T C} 04:50, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Should I withdraw this bot request then if everything is covered? Alpta 20:06, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
