Denied.Category:Wikipedia bot requests for approval
Automatic or Manually Assisted: Automatic
Programming Language(s): Perl
Function Summary: Follow BetacommandBot around and fix its mistakes
Edit period(s) (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): Whenever it notices that BetacommandBot is running
Edit rate requested: No faster than BetacommandBot is running
Already has a bot flag (Y/N): N
Function Details:
- Wherever BetacommandBot has used the template {{di-disputed fair use rationale}} referring to Wikipedia:NFCC #10c, it will replace that template with one written in English.
- Wherever BetacommandBot has left a "fair use disputed" message on a user's talk page where the image is tagged for violation of NFCC #10c, it will add a plain-English explanation of the policy.
- If BetacommandBot has tagged an image for violating NFCC #10c, but it's possible to find an article using that image by following redirects and disambiguation pages, it will remove the template.
- If BetacommandBot has tagged an image with {{di-disputed fair use rationale}}, but the image does not have a fair-use license tag, it will remove the dispute tag.
- More details to come when I find more things that BetacommandBot is doing wrong.

- Seriously, we get it, that you have a problem with BCBot... SQLQuery me! 06:03, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
Denied.. Speedily. Not the way to resolve issue you have with another operator at best, Pointy nomination at worst. Wikipedia:RFC is over that way if you want to get community consensus to shut down that bot. If it is clearly malfunctioning, Wikipedia:AN/I is around the other corner. — xaosflux Talk 06:10, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
