Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Example bot

To remain listed at Wikipedia:Requests for comment, at least two people need to show that they tried to resolve a dispute with the bot owner and have failed. This must involve the same dispute, not different disputes. The persons complaining must provide evidence of their efforts, and each of them must certify it by signing this page with ~~~~. If this does not happen within 48 hours of the creation of this dispute page (which was: {insert UTC timestamp with ~~~~~}), the page will be deleted. The current date and time is: 11:05, 7 August 2024 (UTC).

Please note: This template is for listing disputes about actions that are limited to bots only, specifically these actions:

• automated page editing

For all other matters (such as edit wars and bot owner editing disputes), please use the template at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Example user.
