Are you a bot? Axel xadolik (talk) 04:23, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No, I'm human :) --Magurale (talk) 04:24, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
How is possible to create 20/30 articles each minut since few hours? Axel xadolik (talk) 04:26, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I really wanted to answer this question like "Magic fingers ;)" but the reality is, I prepared the articles as a plain text file and add them into Wt/lzz via MediaWiki API through pagefromfile.py.--Magurale (talk) 04:29, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to me that such script procedures should normally be done by a bot declared and validated by an administrator. Axel xadolik (talk) 04:35, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Actually bot is something different. Bots edit pages unattended through a procedure, bot owners generally doesn't know what bot does in an activity. I'm not using a bot, I only add my articles with a script, it's not unattended, I know what I add at all. So this is something different than bot and I'm not sure about I really need a validation. --Magurale (talk) 04:38, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps the best thing to do would be to put the question to these admins, as this might give a negative impression rather quickly. Axel xadolik (talk) 04:45, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I asked at noticeboard. --Magurale (talk) 04:51, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's best. Notice to : @User:MF-Warburg, @User:Ebe123, @User:Ninjastrikers, @User:StevenJ81, @User:Danny_B. -- Axel xadolik (talk) 05:03, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! You must have been collecting many articles before publishing them all! I'd agree that assisted editing, especially with a vigorously tested script, doesn't require a bot flag. The caveat is I recommend doing so, at least temporarily, to not clog up recent changes. Hope your new articles spur more collaboration, but I feel it'd be preferable to publish as you create articles without creating a backlog for yourself. I hope you aren't tying the success of the Wiktionary on the number of pages you create; we look more for activity than content. Hope it elucidates!
