We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity. If everyone seeing this today donates $5, we will meet our goal for 2019. |

You're on a roll
And once it's done, we'll have done all the articles so won't need it any more!! :D
It's almost ready, and it will also allow changing the rating, which the current script cannot do.
There were problems with edit conflicts. For some reason the bot was overwriting other people's edits even though it was supposed to detect edit conflicts and rerun for the new edits since the bot started checking. Pywikipedia didn't support detecting edit conflicts the way nxbot required it, so I had to patch it, but it didn't work and I just gave up/moved on to other things. Also, the code that handles edit conflicts is intelligent and doesn't force the bot to start all over again, but it's untested and may or may not work.
Also, sometimes it detects false positives, see User:Nx/todo.
I'll dig up the autosign bot if you're interested.
I'm done for today. Posted what needs to be done on User talk:Ponder Stibbons/vector.js. Feel free to continue if you want to.
No cheese error
Actually I've never read any Discworld, I've only played the first two PC games. I chose the name Ponder Stibbons after this comment.
