MsynABot edit

I would like to run an admin-bot to implement the outcome of the RfC “semi-protection to prevent vandalism on most used Items”. Based on it and the current Wikidata:Page protection policy, items that are being used on 500 or more Wikimedia pages should be indefinitely semi-protected, and this protection should be lifted once the usage number falls below this threshold. As of October 2020, around ~26.000 pages require an indefinite semi-protection under that scheme, but only ~3000 of them are currently protected. There is a weekly increase of around 200 items which fulfill the criteria for this sort of protection. I thus think that both the initial implementation of missing semi-protections as well as a weekly update should be done by an admin-bot. Details about the bot functionality can be found at Wikidata:Requests for permissions/Bot/MsynABot (still open).
Technical note: while this request for adminship ideally results in admin rights for the bot account, I consider it valid for the described bot task only. In case I ever get into the situation to run another admin-bot task with User:MsynABot, I will ask for permission on both WD:RFP/BOT and WD:RFP/A again even if the bot account already has admin rights. —MisterSynergy (talk) 07:31, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
