As far as I read the code, it does not automatically review the files but only presents for manual check and then does the edits. As already said at your request on the rights request page, license review should either be done by bot by program code, or manually with your main account. --Krd 08:34, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Whm, then, is there a way to request the increase the limits of the API ussage for normal users--Amitie 10g (talk) 09:46, 11 December 2015 (UTC)?[reply]
There is no matching local right, and I doubt that the m:API high limit requestors global group will be assigned for the intended task. --Krd 12:03, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think that I will have a little chance to do a success Steward request. But anyway, I resolved the API blocking problem by limiting the executions of queries at once.
I want to use this bot account for more tools that I want to develop (specifically, one for the Indian Navy files); once i made those tools, I'll request the bot flag again. --Amitie 10g (talk) 02:32, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Closing this as withdrawn, request again when ready. --Krd 08:48, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
