This is a notice for other admins.

This bot exists for the purpose of removing interwiki links when they have been "migrated" to Wikidata. It hasn't yet been operated at en.wb; I found out about it after it had performed hundred of unauthorized edits on en.wn, in violation of local policy that requires all bots whatsoever to be approved before being operated on en.wn &mdash; and it performed these hundreds of unauthorized edits with the bot flag, because apparently the software gives it the ability to exercise the bot flag on local projects without any local granting of the flag. I'm now engaged in the lengthy process of undoing the damage it did at en.wn.

Since the en.wb community has discussed whether to remove local interwikis when they're generated at Wikidata, and has not made a decision to do so, I've blocked the bot as a preventative measure against having it run roughshod over the local decision-making process. --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 15:32, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

Can this page have partial protection so only registered users can edit. It is a solution page that is complete and there is not really any content that should be added or altered without a deeper discussion with that book community. Over the years I have been reverting non contributive changes to it... --Panic (discuss • contribs) 01:53, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
