Hello, I realize that I may be doing this a bit early, but I am fixing ref errors, adding reflists, and such. I plan to start using JWB for this (which makes automated editing much quicker) so I don't want to flood pending changes and cause a lot of work for the reviewers. Thanks for your consideration. --Prahlad balaji (discuss • contribs) 14:53, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[]

Please don't use any automated tool until this request has been considered properly. While there's nothing wrong with what you have been doing, it would be nice if in some cases you could "fix properly" rather than "technically fix". What I mean by this is that, to take one example, you removed the link to a missing file - which is fine. However, the file could easily have been replaced and by removing the broken link you made it harder for another editor to find and fix the problem. I'd argue that you'd be better not fixing this than hiding the problem (e.g., see this diff). Anyway, this isn't a reason for you not to have Autoreview, but a request that you don't just make a lot of automated technical edits without looking to see if a better fix could be made.

Comment Actually, this sort of thing seems, broadly, a reason not to be in too much of a hurry to advance the normal schedule of automatic granting of review privs. The purpose of our threshold before automatic promotion is, in part, to combat the erosion of local project culture by waiting till users have had time to absorb some of the local culture of the project before assuming their edits will be consistent with the local culture. --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 16:35, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[]
