•  Support Seems as a net-possitive, strengthens security and privacy. Since it is already approved on e.g. enwp (whcih their high bar of ot flags), I dn't see a reason as to why not. --Jonatan Svensson Glad (talk) 02:31, 19 October 2017 (UTC)
• Please make some test edits. --Krd 07:18, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

  @Krd: Test edits done. Jon Kolbert (talk) 14:41, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

  Looks good for me. Let's keep it on hold for a few days, just in case there are objections. --Krd 16:56, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

• If bot code is same as in Russian Wikipedia, it's OK for me. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:08, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

  The code is exactly the same. Jon Kolbert (talk) 14:41, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

If there are no objections, I think bot status should be granted. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:29, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
