Wikipedia is not a battleground. I do not seek battles.

I do not run rouge bots. You have evidence of that? Or are you accusing
merely to accuse?
I do not have a hidden agenda despite being accused of it *all the
freaking
time*. People are willing to give indef blocked
users a second chance yet
are not willing to give me a first one.
In my estimation a rogue bot is one that
makes automatic changes on a
project without any consideration whatsoever for the concerns of the
regular participants in that project. If a project's community wants to
do things differently for reason of its own that's fine.Given the
quantity of projects on which you appear to want to run the bot it's
easy to understand that you may be completely unaware of the discussions
that have taken place on that project. If that project is in a language
that the bot operator does not understand than any attempt at reasonable
discussion would be futile.
Learn to
pick your fights, and avoid entering them with such a deep
preconception that you are right.
I don't pick fights.
Sorry if that one came out sounding wrong. "Choose your battles" would
have been more appropriate phrasing.
