View source for 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 <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>. If this does not happen within 48 hours of the creation of this dispute page (which was: {insert UTC timestamp with <nowiki>~~~~~</nowiki>}), the page will be deleted. The current date and time is: {{mono|{{CURRENTTIME}}, {{CURRENTDAY}} {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}} (UTC)}}.

<u>Please note</u>: 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]].

== Statement of the dispute ==
''This is a summary written by users who are concerned by this bot's operation. Users signing other sections ("Response" or "Outside views") should not edit the "Statement of the dispute" section.''

=== Desired outcome ===
''This is a summary written by users who have initiated the request for comment.  It should spell out exactly what the changes they'd like to see in the bot's operation, or what questions of operation should be the focus.''
<!-- 

The "what's the point of this again?" bit.  Half of the world is going to think it's precursor to arbcom, the other half are probably not going to look to closely since the _point_ isn't clear, and the other half are going to be going for the jugular no matter what.

So here if someone *cough* would write out a nice clear concise explanation of what they hoped would happen by raising this, all would be right with the world.
