- The trial completed with one problematic edit. For one article, the image apparently didn't exist. I've undone that particular edit. I think this sort of problem will be considerably rarer than 1 in 50. Emw (talk) 00:28, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The problem has been fixed. If the image doesn't exist, then PDBbot will skip the page. Emw (talk) 00:58, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Looks like everything went well.
