Upload projects rarely need their own bot and bot flag, unless there are mass housekeeping tasks. There's also a disadvantage of not having them automatically on your main watchlist. Perhaps you can start uploading with Pattypan and see how your first few thousand files go? By the way, you are encouraged to set up your bot account and experiment with it with real uploads, in advance of deciding whether you really need the bot flag. --Fæ (talk) 12:11, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I also don't see why this should be done with a bot account, especially as the operator account has no edits. Please elaborate. --Krd 18:44, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@LilyWonhalf: please advise. --Krd 11:09, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Declined. Please do uploads with main account. --Krd 11:14, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
