DRBot

Bryan has said, "I am no longer part of the active Commons community and do not intend to become so in the foreseeable future. I won't check [my talk] page regularly, so in case you need me, send an mail."

This user account is a bot operated by Bryan (talk). It is not a sock puppet, but rather an automated or semi-automated account for making repetitive edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually. Administrators: if this bot is malfunctioning or causing harm, please block it. tasks • contribs • count • logs • page moves • block user • block log • flag log • global contribs • flag bot

This bot ran on the Toolserver. Toolserver stopped operating on July 1, 2014, at which point all tools not migrated to the new Labs environment stopped functioning. Operators were advised to move their bots to Toollabs (now Toolforge).

Commons:Deletion requests

Commons:Deletion requests is read daily. Closed requests (those containing {{Delh}} and {{Delf}}) are moved to the archives 24 hours after the last edit. Deletion requests that have their subject deleted and are not closed within one hour are automatically closed. Images that kept after a deletion request get {{Kept}} inserted at their talk page. Also uploaders who have not been notified of a pending deletion of one of their images are notified after one hour.

• Have your name put on the notification blacklist if you don't want to receive messages from DRBot.
• DRBot keeps a list of requests that are not closed by an admin.
