[edit] My bot request

Hey. This probably sounds really stupid but im going to ask anyhow. you say that running the bot in one go would save resources, but how?? The ammount of pages edited is going to be exactly the same, so wouldn't the ammount of resources that are used be exactly the same, no matter how long it takes? If anything wouldn't it be more effective to do it slowly over a few days, so that resources aren't hit that hard in one big shot, (i dont think its going to have a large impact of resources any how). I'm new to this stuff so if my quesions do sound stupid i do appologise,. Cheers Printer222 (talk) 00:26, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

If you do a run tagging all the image, then do a run adding the stub parameter you edit more pages. BJ^Talk 00:36, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Oh, i misunderstood you, i thought you were objecting to my proposal of running the program daily untill all the pages were taged and were suggesting that i just run it non-stop untill they were all done. I really don't know how long it will take for the program to tag 6600 pages, so it might be able to be done in one shot anyhow.

I totally agree with your opinon then, Im still trying to work out why its assessing non-stub articles as stub. Ive tried many different things but still can't find a soloution. It really does make sense to wait untill i can sought out the problem before i start (based on your oppinon). Thanks for your help. Printer222 (talk) 00:44, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
