About http://toolserver.org/~betacommand/cgi-bin/compare : Is it possible to get a "must have this user" switch in that? That is, I don't care whether A, B, and C are editing an article, unless D is also editing that page. Also, would be it be trivial to provide a count of users along with the count of edits to each page? It would expand the "combined edits : 25" line to "combined edits : 25, combined users: 4".

- I'm testing the first part now, I'll let you know if it works. As for the second part shouldn't be that hard. βcommand 02:07, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks. This tool makes the SPI report much quicker to type up. Feel free to have a look if you want see what I'm currently doing with it. We're currently at 53 socks, so having some sort of auto-filter would be really helpful. WhatamIdoing (talk) 05:07, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

I'm aware of that policy thanks :). I didn't think we are very strict on that, so I didn't see a problem with approving the bot before the userpage was created, but I'm currently in dialogue with the op, helping them to create the bot's userpage. And if they weren't/aren't able to make sure the userpage meets the requirements, then I will happily create it for them. Either way, I'll make sure the end userpage is fine.
