I would like to get approval for the same task too. -- Magioladitis (talk) 07:10, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Approved for trial (50 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. ·addshore· ^{talk to me!} 18:54, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Trial complete. Here are the edits. Two different scripts were used. The difference between the two is one script gets its data from the Checkwiki database via here and the other script gets its data from a database dump. I forgot to change the edit on the last 9 edits as it used the different script from the first 41. Bgwhite (talk) 19:45, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

{{tl:BAG assistance needed}}  Approved. All looks good, trusted.·addshore· ^{talk to me!} 10:10, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
