Discussion

• Since bot account is blocked, do you agree that bot should perform only approved and test tasks? --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:13, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

  I will obey it, but I do not like that this stupid bureaucracy was copypasted from English Wikipedia to Commons, which is an international project. --TohaomgTohaomg (talk) 16:37, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

  There is Russian proverb "measure seven times, cut once" ("семь раз отмерь, один раз отрежь"). Discussing mass changes before doing them is same thing. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:24, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

@EugeneZelenko: will here be any progress or my application will be ignored forever. --TohaomgTohaomg (talk) 21:40, 26 December 2019 (UTC)

Personally I doubt that you should operate bot. Indeed, there may be different opinions. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:43, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Then I will do it from my base account. --TohaomgTohaomg (talk) 15:56, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
