[edit] Denied. If you're wanting to run a bot on the Central Kurdish Wikipedia, you should follow that wiki's procedures for requesting bot approval. This page is for requesting approval to run a bot on the English Wikipedia.
If you were requesting to run a bot here on the English Wikipedia, I'd note that your request is far too vague and tell you to read WP:BOTPOL, and also I'd suggest that you might want to spend some time around the English Wikipedia making content edits as a normal editor before coming back with a more specific request.
