@SQL: if they have done anything in 2 years, they should be good still (i.e. MadmanBot had activity this year). — xaosflux ^Talk 00:33, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Xaosflux, Fair enough, wasn't sure if the bot being active counted. SQL ^{Query me!} 00:36, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@SQL: the 'brand new' policy includes "operating a bot" as a qualifying activity. — xaosflux ^Talk 00:40, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Xaosflux, What's your opinion on MetsBot (talk · contribs) - hadn't edited in 10 years, made 2 edits recently, then was globally locked and blocked due to compromise? SQL ^{Query me!} 00:40, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@SQL: does not count, especially now.... — xaosflux ^Talk 00:43, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@SQL: but also in general, if the bot account's edits are not under the auspice of a currently approved task, they don't count as "operating a bot". — xaosflux ^Talk 00:44, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
