Will this Bot be Good for Me RU-6972 (talk) 01:09, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

• I think that the description is too vague. What kind of edits will the bot make, and why? --Stefan2 (talk) 01:46, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

Denied. There is far from enough information to even begin a trial on this, 1000e/d bot from an editor that has no demonstrated experience, and has recent admitted vandalism. — xaosflux ^Talk 03:40, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

• I would add on here: please read our advice to new bot operators. — Earwig ^talk 03:45, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
