Template:Bot
 | This user account is a bot operated by [[:en:User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[:en:User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]]). It is not a sock puppet but rather a legitimate alternative account, used to make repetitive automated or semi-automated edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually. Administrators: if this bot is malfunctioning or causing harm, please block it. |
