CZ:Managing Editor/2011/001 - Bot policy

Statement of problem
''Please be brief and specific in your request (polar questions are best) and add relevant links if available. Please state a time frame in which you expect a decision.''

Automated edits can be beneficial to the site if properly handled, yet they can have a negative impact on the user experience of human readers or contributors if not. We need a policy on this. The existing draft at CZ:Bot policy can serve as a basis. Notes taken on this page will be forwarded to both councils in due time. --Daniel Mietchen 22:13, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
