If you are here to register a complaint regarding my bot's edits, before doing so please note:
- There is a very clear policy regarding the use of non-free images, which must be followed by all users. Even you. This policy is located at Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. You must read this.
- Do not revert the bot's edits to your userpages or templates, because the bot will just do it again.
- All images must comply with policy.
- If you're here to whine and complain that the bot screwed up, please at least include a link. Diffs are even better, but a link to the image is sufficient. I do not really want to go through your contributions just to find that the error was yours, not mine.
- We do not permit fair use, copyrighted images be used outside of the article namespace. Please see WP:NFCC#9
- Bug reports are very welcome.
- Questions and complaints regarding your images, rather than this bot, can be directed to the Image Copyright Help Desk where a team of volunteers will endeavor to offer useful advise in a convivial atmosphere.

And some unrelated FAQs:
- Q: You added a tag too fast when I uploaded it! I was in the middle of adding source/license/rationale when you tagged it!
- A: That's OK, just remove the tag, and get it. It was just bad luck that I checked right when your image was at the top of the list. As a tip, just try to fill it out correctly the first time, to avoid this happening in the future.
- Q: Your bot keeps adding {{orphan}} to pages that are disambiguations such as Habermas!
- A: Unfortunately, that is a Pywikipedia error. I have no control over that, sorry. The reason is that it uses a special disamiguation template that Pywikipedia does not recognize.
- Q: I found an orphaned page and I want to know how I can help this page not be orphaned anymore.
- A: You could try going to related pages, such as the month/day/year of birth and linking from there (if it is a notable person). You also might want to check out Wikipedia:WikiProject Orphanage, that has some tips on how to make it not orphan.
- Q: When will your bot remove the template after I add links?/How many links does it take to remove the template?/I have made the page not orphan anymore. Could you remove the template please?
- A: My bot does not remove the template, it only adds it. If it is no longer orphan, go ahead and remove it yourself.
- Q: Your bot made a mistake, it removed (link) when it should not have!
- A: This, unfortunately, is not my problem. I am using a default pywikipedia script, interwiki.py. Please talk to one of the pywikipedia developers about it, as I am not looking at and approving any of its edits.
- Q: I am having some problems joining the Account creation mailing list, could you help me?
- A: I did make the tool, yes, but I actually am not a mailing list admin. I am just a member.
- Q: Confused about my ++, +-, +=, etc. edit summaries?
- A: Key: ++= Support/keep. +-= Oppose/delete. += = Neutral. +*= Comment. +>= Move.
