Time filed: 14:39, Sunday June 2, 2013 (UTC)

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic

Programming language(s): AutoWikiBrowser

Source code available: Standard AWB

Function overview: Automatic Wikiproject tagging of talk pages similar to Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/BG19bot 5

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):

Edit period(s): daily

Estimated number of pages affected: 1000 per week

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes

Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: Working on Wikipedia:Database reports/Untagged biographies of living people (or I can generate the list of pages to work on from the toolserver when this page is outdated), the bot shall tag talk pages with {{WikiProject Biography|living=yes}}. AWB is not 100% reliable regarding adding listas values, so, I won't be adding them. I have been doing such edits with my main account for some time without problems. Examples: [1] [2] [3] Cloning the task of another bot has the following advantages:

1. Ensures the continuity of the task when one of the bots doing the task is offline or his operator is on wikibreak.
2. The other bot operator saves his time and has time to do other tasks.

If approved for trial, please add my bot to the CheckPage. Thank you. --Meno25 (talk) 14:39, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Trial complete. Thank you for your quick response. I finished doing 50 trial edits. --Meno25 (talk) 14:59, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Could we please have a slightly more informative edit summary? :) ·addshore· ^{talk to me!} 15:23, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Done. How about "Bot: Automatic Wikiproject tagging Report errors"? Examples: [4] [5] [6] --Meno25 (talk) 15:55, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

 Approved. - We only got to see the bot create talk pages in the trial, not add to them, so please monitor the first such pages the bot edits, but as your using AWB all should be fine! ·addshore· ^{talk to me!} 19:14, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
