So, for the past one or two months we’ve been getting many bots. All of them were for chat logging. But here’s a question: do we really need so many of them? While having a bunch of them is not going to harm, what if a user who can’t hold a bot’s job requests to be one? While bureaucrats can choose which bot to promote, the bot system is still unfinished in our wiki.

There’s also bots who are used not for chat logging, but for making changes in other pages. These bots are also at the unknown status (even though we currently only have one).

So, the point of this thread is to decide who can request for their bots to be promoted and who cannot.
