Discussion[edit]

I don't understand what this bot does. It may be obvious to others. Adding interwiki's to what? Fixing what interwiki's? Not sure how this works. --68.127.233.138 (talk) 19:06, 9 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This bot task is interwiki links. Mainly add interwiki links from other wiki's new article. I revised Function overview. Thanks. --Mymelo (talk) 00:12, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedily Approved. Standard pywikipedia. It seems you already know to keep it updated and stay out of the Template namespace. Anomie ⚔ 03:53, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
