Bot's tasks for which permission is being sought: Until now I published my personal photographs under CC̠-By-SA. I decided to change to CC0 for my future uploads. I also would like to change the licenss of my about 36.000 previous personal images stored here Category:Photographs by Benoît Prieur.
The purpose of the bot is the change of license for these 36.000 photographs. I did a set of changes here [1].
Thank you, ----Benoît (d) 09:44, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
Automatic or manually assisted: Automatically but I keep an eye on.
Edit type (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): one time run
Maximum edit rate (e.g. edits per minute): slow (timer in the code)

Programming language(s): Python+PyWikiBot.

- I don't think that it's good idea to have Creator template and Wikidata for person who is not notable from Wikipedia point of view. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:07, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
- It is not new but already used for every 36.000 pictures. The unique goal of this request is to have the botflag and consequently avoid to pollute watchlists with this change of license. ----Benoît (d) 14:19, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
I remove my request. Probably I did not understand correctly expectations. Thank you ː) ----Benoît (d) 17:02, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

- First: categorization of personal images in personal categories.
- After: cleaning, sorting images in top-categories I know well (Category:Ain for example).
- After (2): I'd like to upload CC-By-SA free music to commons from Dogmazic (anyway I will mention this code here when it's done before running the bot).
Automatic or manually assisted: Automatically but I keep an eye on.

Hi @Benoît Prieur: . I think we should discuss one task after the other (or multiple in parallel, but not lump them all together). Regarding First and After: Categorizations of images should be performed on main accounts especially if they are done with manual intervention/oversight. Even if you use tools like pywikibot for this activity, I would advise to perform them on the main account without bot flag. Please also see Help:Cat-a-lot. Regarding After [2]: My suggestion would be to seperate this out into another bot request once you are ready and delete this from here for now. --Schlurcher (talk) 10:29, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
- Hi @Schlurcher: I follow your advice. I will ask here a bot flag for tasks 2,3 when ready. For the moment I cancel this request. Thank you. ----Benoît (d) 11:05, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
I close this as withdrawn for the moment. When ready please remove protection an relist the request. --Krd 15:55, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
