Request for removal of bot access

The following accounts, in my opinion, should not have the bot right. I propose the removal of the accounts' bot right.

I intentionally left out the bots with an action in 2011 and MediaWiki default.  Hazard-SJ  ±  06:06, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

I intend to test the bot (タチコマ robot) on this wiki. I have went on a wikibreak in 2008 but now I am active again. -- Cat ^chi? 11:10, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Did any of named bots cause some troubles on this wiki in the past? What is the exact reason to remove the bot flag? Thanks Petrb (talk) 14:29, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

No, but they apparently show no need to have the flag as it isn't used.  Hazard-SJ  ±  22:51, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

Some of the bot owners are still active on different wikis. Care to tell them about this before removing the rights (or even considering this)? -Barras talk 23:08, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

Sounds like a good idea.  Hazard-SJ  ±  00:11, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Can you please explain how it would be useful for this test site to remove the flags? Petrb (talk) 11:20, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
