[edit] Deprecation of Template:Lang-de
I don't understand why this is a good idea. Could you explain why this should be replaced by a much longer construction? I guess editors will just use "German: whatever" instead of German: whatever", which loses all the CSS niftiness that {{lang}} can provide. Nobody will ever want to type "{{langWithName|de|German|whatever}}" when the can just type "[[German]]: ''whatever'' and have the same apparent output. Was there nay discussion about this change anywhere? Kusma (討論) 22:07, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] 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 23:57, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
