: As of this morning, [[Special:Contributions/UnderBot|UnderBot is active]]. I turn off my computer at night, so it'll only be editing during the day. —[[User:Underscore|Underscore]] ([[User talk:Underscore|Talk]]) 15:45, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
 
==Delay after null edits==
 
When this bot finds a page that it doesn't need to edit, does it immediately seek out another page or does it wait for the next interval? If it waits, maybe you could shorten the wait when it doesn't edit to something like 30 seconds instead of ten minutes. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 20:14, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
:It waits the full ten minutes, just because I didn't bother to make it smart enough to do otherwise. I figure there's no hurry. Pages that don't need any changes are relatively rare (out of nearly fifty pages UnderBot has looked at so far today, it left only one unchanged), and the whole job will be done before (the American) Thanksgiving in any case. —[[User:Underscore|Underscore]] ([[User talk:Underscore|Talk]]) 21:14, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
