That's wrong.
What I don't like is the idea if having several people running automated scripts on b-t's wiki.
I've been running a bot account on the Wikimedia Projects since 2005, and if there's one thing I know it's this : humans sometimes screw up, but it takes a bot to screw up really spectaculary.

Huh?

He wants people with experience to take the risk, not "rookies".

I should have clarified what I meant better. @______@;

Correct me if I'm wrong DarkoNeko, but on IRC, you said you didn't think it was a good idea to depend on an external source (like mangaupdates) to evaluate activity, which is essentially what my database does.

In fact, your comments got me thinking again and I came up with a proposal for tracking updates internally, here. XD

Hence, that was why I said DarkoNeko did not approve. But if I misunderstood DarkoNeko about that too, then there's no issue at all then. xD
