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.
Thanks,
Markus
