Sometimes when community want to approve tasks for
already flagged bot,
they want bot doesn't mark their task as bot edit so it appears on RC
and Watchlist as non-bot edit. I think this can be a reason?
Thanks. This is a relevant use case indeed! I will add support for the
bot flag to my code then.

The reason our bot flag works like this is to remain consistent
with all
other mediawiki API modules.
See

Mainly, Not all users with this right are "bots".
Ok, but when a user edits a wiki thourgh the browser, this is not
related to the API anyway, is it? I wonder in which cases a users
with a bot flag makes an edit through the API that should not be
flagged as "bot".
Background: I am currently implementing write access to Wikidata. I
am inclined to set the bot flag on all requests to simplify the
interface.

Hi,
I wondered why wbeditentity has a parameter "bot". The
documentation
says that this will mark the edit as a bot edit, but only
if the
user is in the bot group. In other words, users in the bot
group can
use this parameter to decide if they want to have their
API-based
edit flagged as bot or not. Is there any reason why a user
in bot
group would *not* want their API-based edit flagged as bot?
Cheers,
Markus
