Hoi,
No when there are ten accounts with a bot flag, I would trust that account
and give it a SUL account with bot flags. Assume some good faith; the point
is that particularly in the 100 or so Wikipedias with less then 1000
articles there IS no bureaucrat and a lot of time IS wasted.
In a perfect world all our Wikipedias have more then 1000 articles and have
a full localisation. Sadly we can strive to make it so but there is a long
way ahead of us.
Thanks,
GerardM

Hoi,
There are several bots who work on almost all projects of a kind.
Particularly on the smallest projects where there is no bureaucrat, it
is
not easy to get a bot status. The consequence is
that on these small
projects it is harder then necessary to establish if there has been
some
regular activity.
When an account with more then existing 10 profiles and bot flags is
allowed
to be a SUL account, this would make vandalism
and regular activity a
lot
more visible.
I'm not sure I understand you. Are you suggesting that once a global
account has 10 local bot flags, they get some kind of global bot flag?
If so, I would be opposed to that. Bot policy is a matter for
individual projects. Should 10 projects be able to impose decisions on
all the rest?
