Dear all,
I am quite concerned, if such a proposal (I did not read it all due to the
longuish and imho too emotional discussions) gets 2/3 support will there
then come people, probably without even knowing that particular language,
into the wikis with bot articles and delete them overruling the community?
The link to this proposal is not published anywhere (only the meta-rc
readers are aware of it), I have not seen it in any other ml or village
pump.
Imho this should be decided by communities only and the latter are just the
ones who are not informed.
Therefore I personally regard this proposal invalid.
Best regards,
Elisabeth Anderl

On it.wp we did not use the bots for creating the
articles about the
8,000+ municipalities of Italy. Nevertheless, we created some
templates and schemes to be applied for creating a consistent series
of articles, that have been created "manually" by merging the data
from the national statistical agency of Italy.
Bots weren't yet running on it:wp in that time.
People who participated in this thread, specially who submitted their
opinions about bot-generation articles and its good and bad, may be
interested in an on-going vote on a bot-generated article related
proposal.
