Approved.

Sambot 10[edit]

Operator: [[Sam Korn]] ^(smoddy)

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Automatic

Programming Language(s): PHP, using Pillar

Function Overview: Tag pages in selected categories as being part of a task force.

Edit period(s): Once

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

Function Details:

Using basically the same code as Sambot 7, tag pages in the categories listed here with water-polo = yes. I would also like approval to run this for any task forces created in the future.

Any pages that got missed on that bot run but which should be tagged with {{WP Swimming}} in exactly the same way as that task worked.

Looks uncontroversial to me. Anyone have an opinion? – Quadell ^(talk) 14:15, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. I see no reason against a general approval. --ThaddeusB (talk) 04:40, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just to clarify, are you asking for approval for any task force or just the ones in WikiProject Swimming? Also, the water polo task force seems a little under-staffed for the number of articles it is about to take on, but that's not really a bot approval issue.

Just tags in {{WP Swimming}} and its redirects. I might well ask for AnomieBOT 28-like approval at some point, but I'd like to get there in stages so I know my code is absolutely perfect first. [[Sam Korn]] ^(smoddy) 15:52, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedily Approved. User has done virtually the same thing before, so a trial seems superfluous. – Quadell ^(talk) 19:46, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
