I have made some tests under my own account. See my edits. Pyb (talk) 08:57, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
- Why does the parameter need to be renamed? Can't we modify the template to recognize both parameters? --Krd 09:31, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
- Probably but I don't know how to do that.
- I prefer to update the categories. I plan to add two kinds of code (Moiroux and Salomon). That's why I'm replacing the parameter "code". Pyb (talk) 09:49, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
- I think will be good idea to use less technical edit summaries. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:00, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
- Do you own a bot account with +b yet? --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:19, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
- me? Yes, botapyb if an official bot on Wikidata. I'm glad there is no objection. I'm the main contributor on the Père-Lachaise Cemetery. 99% of the content is probably from me (4000 categories, 15 000 files). I'm active in this area since 2011. It's clearly not my goal to destroy my work ;) I'm not a programmer but know to run very easy tasks with AWB. Pyb (talk) 10:07, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

As there was no objection, I'm closing this as approved. --Krd 16:51, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
