- So it will go to every YYYY-MM from the start of 1989 to 2008 and make redirects for every particular month to its correct notation (e.g. 2002-04 would redirect to April 2002)? If so, I see no hesitation of supporting this bot for approval. Also, the edit rate seems a bit high, so you might want to lower to around eight, but that's just my opinion and I'm happy for you to leave it at 10EPM. E talk 20:53, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
- I see no problem with the edit rate on this task, since there's basically no chance of error. I'm a bit confused about the why though. Articles such as April 1995 don't exist. —METS501 (talk) 21:32, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
- MMHMM. Then it will redirect to YYYY#Month, such as 1995#April. --ST47Talk 21:40, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
- OK.
Approved for trial. Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. 20 edits or so. —METS501 (talk) 20:20, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

- Very nice, the edits for the task seem alright, but there seems to be a few edits of BAGBot's. Has this been fixed? If that's alright now, I am in full support of approval. E talk 04:06, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, I had an account mishap earlier :(. --ST47Talk 11:16, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
