Not sure about the link you are adding can you please explain?

At this link thanks. [1] Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 23:04, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

Absolutely. I'm adding the Unique Ingredient Identifier (UNII) codes used by the FDA/NIH/USP to reference substances. I'm also adding a link to the UNII list site. Many of them had already been added last year, but there are a large portion that hadn't yet been addressed. I'm adding all remaining UNIIs that link to INN-named substances, and are displayed on the FDA public list.Peryeat (talk) 00:29, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Bot

Are you using a bot to add all those links? If you are, please note that it is not allowed to operate a bot script without permission of WP:BAG. Reaper Eternal (talk) 01:47, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Reaper Eternal (talk) 02:06, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

You are extremely right. I was not aware of that rule until about an hour ago. It's completely my fault, and I assume full responsibility. It just seemed logical, as the task was so simple, and doing it by hand became monotonous. The only problem is, I still have the script running on a computer that I don't have current access to, so I can't terminate it. It will stop very soon (there are not many left to be updated). If the changes need to be rolled back, or my account temporarily disabled / banned, I understand. It won't happen again. Peryeat (talk) 02:08, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

If there's anything I can do to assist, let me know. Peryeat (talk) 02:09, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

I doubt they'll need to be rolled back, but please ask in the future. This tends to be the way that a lot of damage gets done. (Not saying that you have done any damage, but when bots go haywire....) Reaper Eternal (talk) 02:12, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Yes, don't worry about it, as long as the data is correct there isn't a huge problem. For very obvious tasks like this one you don't really need approval, but you might consider getting it - bot edits are specially flagged to avoid flooding the recent changes list and it can be helpful to run bot edits on a separate account. You should definitely be leaving an explaination of the edit, and that it is an automated edit as the edit summary, however. Prodego ^talk 02:15, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
