Incorrect addition of interlanguage links

The bot incorrectly added interlanguage links for the gynephilia and androphilia article. The correct links are in the inline text. Yurikbot and MTSbot have made the same error on the Anemoi page. Can the bot be improved to avoid this problem in future? ntennis 05:42, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The robot was improved on March 24. --PorthosBot 16:48, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bot flag?

I couldn't find any description of the tasks of this bot, neither is it listed at WP:BOTS, nor did I find an approval procedure for this bot at Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approvals ... does this bot need a bot flag? (currently No. 54 at http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Special:Listusers&group=Bot&limit=100&offset=0)

PS, appears to be primarily an interwiki-bot ([1]) - is that so? In that case, please list at Wikipedia:Bots#Interwiki Bots --Francis Schonken 09:04, 1 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have blocked this bot indefinitely pending more information. Talrias (t | e | c) 11:02, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

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 04:45, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
