Operator: Coffee

Automatic or Manually assisted: Automatic

Programming language(s): AWB

Function overview: Basically the same tasks that it currently does for WikiProject Arkansas, I'd like to use with WikiProject Louisiana any WikiProject that wants the bot to do the tasks. Both tagging unassessed articles per a rating from another project, or if there is a {{stub}} tag relevant to Louisiana the WikiProject it is tagging for, it gets tagged as a stub and added to the project.

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):

Edit period(s): Weekly

Estimated number of pages affected: Unable to make a good estimate because of the unknown amount of projects that might want it to run. At least 10,000 though would be an early guess.

Exclusion compliant (Y/N): Yes

Already has a bot flag (Y/N): Yes

Function details: Not much more to go into.

Discussion

I don't think this really needs another approval process, as long as the tasks are essentially identical. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 15:02, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

That's what I was thinking, but I'd thought I'd run it through anyway, just to be sure. ;-) Coffee // have a cup // ark // 18:40, 24 December 2009 (UTC

Comment:Is there really a need for all these tag and assess bots? Cant we just have a few? What's more, this bot is entirely too specific (IMO). Perhaps a bot that can be used for all the state wikiprojects that request it? Just an idea. Merry Christmas! Tim1357 (talk) 03:46, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

I'd be more than happy to run this bot on any WikiProject that wants it, if the BAG will approve that. --Coffee // have a cup // ark // 09:57, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

 Approved. Can't see a problem with this. Just doing the same thing that has been previously approved, but for other WikiProjects. Best, - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 14:31, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
