Hey there. To those of you that are American, happy Thanksgiving! To those of you that are not American, happy &quot;Why can&#39;t I reach any of the the Americans today, and what&#39;s with all this talk of stuffing? day!&quot;.<br>
<br>So a while back when Denny gave a talk in Boston about Wikidata, he mentioned that he didn&#39;t want bots running until after the new API hit and we had a chance to make sure that nothing was broken. I reposted that on the project chat and we all agreed to stop the bots. That was on November 13. <br>
<br>Today I wake up to find that there is a bot running, and another to-be-bot-op is asking if he can run his too. Does anyone know if the new API has hit? Denny had no idea when it would. If it has, and nothing is on fire, does anyone have any other objections to running bots again?<br>
<br>On a final note, I would ask that the bots stop running at Q99900 and resume once we&#39;re at Q100001, as Denny did make a point to me in private that day that I agree with, that it&#39;s great for the milestones in projects (and Q100000 is a big one) to be reached by humans and not bots. Donno if that&#39;s possible to program in though. Gosh, I remember creating things with four digits after the Q. I&#39;m feeling old. :D<br>
