Wrongly accused

I made a change to BBC BASIC. This article does need a bit of work as it has many issues. Last October I put a comment about my intention to clean it up and had no response.

I changed the Infobox. While I was doing my second edit your bot made assorted changes that caused my second edit to do very odd things so I reverted your bot. If your bot had not caused problems then I would have left its changes alone.

Your bot had changed sections elsewhere that I had not edited. It then accused me of failing to follow the MOS.

I am attempting to clean up this article. I have followed the proper steps. I am going to do more work to the article. I can never be as fast as a bot. A bot can never know that editing is a process "Do many small edits rather than one big edit".

I have had to interrupt my edits because of your bot. BlueWren0123 (talk) 05:25, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

@BlueWren0123 No intentions of stepping on your edits. Just a friendly notification. :) Cheers!Packerfan386beer here 05:35, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. Just got a grumble from a 2nd bot. I do not seem to be winning at the moment.

I do not know what went wrong with the interaction, but after your bot my replacement to the lead that I had already checked earlier and was OK moved to the end of the Infobox. I have the text in .txt files ready to go. BlueWren0123 (talk) 05:42, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

I have put in my 5 prepared edits now. Took a lot longer then I anticipated and am going to pause now and treat my bruises.

I know that I need to do some more tidy up (the History needs a short intro and some of the refs need to be repeated within History). But not today.

As a purchaser of the products and a reader of the documentation and magazines, I know that there is a lot of OR and Off Topic stuff remaining. BlueWren0123 (talk) 06:32, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Script-assisted date audit and style fixes question

Hello, A little while ago you did an edit to Bouteloua dactyloides placing a "Use mdy dates" template. I'm curious how it is decided to use mdy vs dmy as I usually default to dmy on any page that uses a scientific name to be more in line with international science usage. If you had not placed that template I would have defaulted to that there as well, would I have been wrong? 🌿MtBotany (talk) 23:42, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

The date change was going off of Buffalo Grass being native to North America and its growing popularity as a turfgrass on this continent. But do feel free to change it to any Int'l standard that exists. Packerfan386beer here 23:20, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
