Is another interwiki bot needed? It seems like we have plenty of them running already. 28bytes (talk) 18:21, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I wouldn't say needed but it can't hurt. There can never be too many, it would be a good experience for me and the links might be done quicker. I think denying me the chance to have a go at interwiki bots would be doing me a disservice. Rcsprinter (deliver) 19:37, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
