Discussion
editI know there are other bots doing the same thing. But there is nothing wrong with a backup :-P and it will help to keep on top of the work. See my testing on {{lived}} at Special:Contributions/Maelgwnbot :: maelgwn - talk 07:15, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm a bit concerned about substitution of the {{unsigned}} group since that would require an extraordinary amount of edits and the merits of substituting the template are still under debate. —METS501 (talk) 20:52, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
