Thanks Xaosflux. @Emirjp: When do you want to do a trial? I will arrange a few people to help do a trial.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:54, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Xaosflux: I did some test edits and improved the code a bit. emijrp (talk) 09:09, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Emijrp: I'm expecting this will be low-volume, do you need a bot flag for this? (Do you want to avoid the edits in recent changes/watchlists for 'hidebots'?) — xaosflux ^Talk 14:41, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Xaosflux: I think it is better with flag, edits will happen hourly over a month. emijrp (talk) 15:26, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Approved. low-volume, non-article impacting - no fuss, no muss. — xaosflux ^Talk 15:36, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
