Hi,
Users without a bot flag will quickly receive an error when trying to make
too many edits in a row [1]. I noticed that I am getting this even when
editing at a rate of 0.5 edits/second. What is permissible there? I would
like to use this as a default throttling in WDTK.
Moreover, when editing as a bot, this limit does not apply. Is there a
recommended edit rate for bots? Of course there is the dispatch statistics,
but I guess it is better to avoid pushing this to a high value before
stopping.
All I could find is the maxlag and dispatch lag here:
