I didn't mean to create it without the word "Bot" at the end of the name. Any chance I can get it moved to User:QuestionCopyrightBot? lethargilistic (talk) 08:50, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

I just realized that I didn't add this to the BFRA queue that night, haha. lethargilistic (talk) 05:11, 28 August 2018 (UTC)

@Lethargilistic: Just a quick tip I learned from studying the bot policy. Bot editing/testing should be done in your userspace according to WP:BOTPOL until the bot formally obtains approval. Hope the advice helps. Kadane (talk) 05:38, 28 August 2018 (UTC)

This isn't a valid reason to request the bot flag; you should use Test Wikipedia or run MediaWiki locally. -FASTILY 01:25, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

I see. I hadn't heard of the test Wikipedia yet. Thanks. lethargilistic (talk) 05:50, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
