:I dont think we need two bots for this task I know from experiance that this can be done rather quickly with one bot and can be kept up to date very easly. I would move to reject this bot, no offence ment but one bot can handle this task. Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 03:04, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Approved for trial. I know that the other bot was approved in totality, but I want to see this bot go through a trial period. Let's see 40-100 edits done by this bot using this method, just to make sure everything checks out. Post the results here when completed. Since this will be coordinated with the Ganeshbot, I see no reason why the two can't exist working together, and it is not clear from bot policy that two bots with the same task are not allowed anyway. If someone else disagrees with me, we can always not approve the request, but a trial shouldn't hurt any. -- RM 04:42, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Approved for trial. This is a tad unorthodox, but I approve Betacommand for trial for this same task if he so pleases and the three can work out the details. -- RM 15:23, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Here I am with the results of the trial. I look forward to your feedback. Betacommand, the way I will be taking care of objections about adding the WP India template on your bot's talk page is that I will do a small subcategory at a time and will go through the titles before starting to add the project banner. If the article does not really fit, I will remove it from the list. This should minimize errors and objections. Thanks -- Lost(talk) 19:52, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
