Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "DannyS712 bot", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it contains the suffix "-bot", which is generally reserved for authorized bot accounts. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing.

@Zinnober9: This will be a bot account operated by me (DannyS712). For now, it is not approved because I have not being able to create a bot yet. I created this second account per the recommendations given at Help:Creating a bot#Implementation. Please don't block it. --DannyS712 (talk) 16:50, 17 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@DannyS712: I was not under the impression from that article that users created the bot account prior to having a mission, but then I've never thought about creating a bot account for a task and may have misread it. It seems to me that you clearly know to not to use this account until after you have a mission approved, and give that your main account is not questionable, I don't see a reason to report this account as an unapproved bot. I wish you success with your bot process and approval! Zinnober9 (talk) 04:32, 20 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Zinnober9: Thanks! I found out that it was a lot harder to create a basic bot than I thought, so I kind-of gave up (for now), but I don't intend to use the account for anything else. --DannyS712 (talk) 04:38, 20 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
