[edit] Animum Delivery Bot

tasks • contribs • count • sul • logs • page moves • block user • block log • flag log • flag bot

Operator: Magnus animum

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Semi-automatic

Programming Language(s): None; uses AWB.

Function Summary: When a list of users (or a link to a list of users) and the message to deliver are left on the appropriate subpage, the bot will deliver the message to the users listed.

Edit period(s) (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): Whenever a request is left on the appropriate subpage (probably User:Animum Delivery Bot/Requests)

Edit rate requested: 8 edits per minute

Already has a bot flag (Y/N):

Function Details: It will use AWB to deliver the newsletters with the "append" option enabled. To get the list, I will filter the links and select "Convert to user talk" in the tools menu. It will have AutoSave enabled, but with a delay, probably 7 seconds. —« ANIMUM » 01:55, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

there is not a need for this bot. there are numerous bots approved to do this, Mine included. All a user needs to do is ask at WP:BOTREQ and its normally done within a day. Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 01:59, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

But I don't see a problem with another bot doing it :-) Approved for trial. Try delivering one newsletter. —METS501 (talk) 02:47, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
