| == Conclusion of the AN thread == | |||
| Per the consensus of the thread on ], the ] has gained community consensus. You are prohibited from running automated programs to make edits (or edits that appear to be automated), on either a bot account, or your main account. You are also placed under civility parole, and any edit which is seen as uncivil by an uninvolved administrator may lead to a block. Failure to comply with either of these restrictions will lead to a block of up to one week. These restrictions are in place until the community decide that the remedies are no longer appropriate. Regards, ] 00:23, 25 May 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :Beta, I'd say you're pushing it already with the run of double redirect fixes. It's not like fixing double redirects is a bad thing, but making the same kind of edit every 10 seconds is somewhere on the boundary of "edits that appear to be automated". | |||
| :Automation can go on without your help. There are existing double-redirect bots out there. ] / ] 22:01, 28 May 2008 (UTC) | |||
| Apparently you need some clarification of what exactly the restriction means. You aren't allowed to make any bot type, automated edits. All your edits should be done manually, and each edit should be checked by yourself before making it. Your contributions should show this as well, and you shouldn't make edits that appear in anyway automated - generic edit summaries like the ones you did for the double redirects are not acceptable. If you did this again, you'd get yourself a block. ] 22:30, 28 May 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :Do you suggest that he type the summary differently each time? There are only so many ways you can say the same thing, and if you want to be assuming bad faith, a bot can just as easily use more than one summary as a usual editor can. Last I checked (and I have been away a bit), showing dedication to the project by doing tough or repetitive, boring work was considered to be a good thing, not a crime. Operating at a higher efficiency than other editors is also not a crime, unless it's obvious that he's using a bot. Like, if it said "Using AWB". Not if he copies and pastes edit summaries. You, for example, have used the summary "Welcoming user using ]" 471 times, "Your recent edits" 402 times, and "warn" 375 times in your career. I've used "Welcome to wikipedia!" 942 times, and, somehow (no clue why) "I vandalize myself" 57 times. That doesn't mean ''we're'' running unauthorized bots. Edit summaries are really not a valid way to enforce this sort of thing. --]]]<small>(st47)</small> 23:09, 28 May 2008 (UTC) | |||
| ::Of course it doesn't, but this gives the impression that he's using bots, which he's banned from. I've gone through and checked the edits, as I'm sure other users have to check for mistakes, which is exactly the reason he's banned from using bots. He's banned from making edits that appear to be automated - these appear to be automated, so if it was to happen again, he'd be blocked. ] 23:13, 28 May 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :::and whoever placed the block on zero proof would be at arbcom for abuse of admin tools. I was not using a bot. so if I was fighting vandalism and use the same edit summary Im a bot? give me a break and do something productive, something Im trying to do. ] 23:18, 28 May 2008 (UTC) | |||
| ::::No, you can't make edits like this, period. You can't appear to be making automated edits from your account, and these certainly did appear to be automated. ] 23:21, 28 May 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :::::Im sorry if you cant see the difference between automated and not, these where not automated and I dont care what you say Ill edit what I want to, end of story. ] 23:23, 28 May 2008 (UTC) | |||
| It appears to me that the community has gone a bit overboard with its restrictions on Betacommand. It appears that we are saying that he can not make use of any of the semi-automated tools such as Vandel Proof, Twinkle, AWB, etc; thats seems excessive to me. As far as making repetative edits as a rate of 1 every ten seconds, that seems reasonable to me usings one of the semi-automatic tools. If he were running a bot I would expect to see edit rates in excess of 10 per second rather than 6 per minute. Let's be a bit more reasonable and not jump to the conclusion that Betacommand is ignoring the restrictions. ] <sup>(])</sup> 00:13, 29 May 2008 (UTC) | |||
