Re: "I don't see any links to any relevant discussions you have had": For which tasks? Both of Rukhabot's current tasks (updating interwiki-links, and updating /etc.) are ones that it's been doing for years, and yes, I started discussions about both of them beforehand (and since then, I've started dicsussions about any nontrivial changes I planned to make to them, e.g. the decision to start supporting sr.wikt's and ku.wikt's HTTP 403 script-redirects). The bot's most recent non-long-term task was implementing Votes/pl-2013-03/Romanization and definition line.

Consensus absolutely is not the same as "Ruakh approves"; I'm not sure why you say that. Just because I'm the only trying to get you to follow policy, suddenly you decide that policy just means me?

> You keep saying I should make sure that it's ok to do, but when I show you that it actually ok you just ignore me and say it's not good enough. So there is no pleasing you.

I'm really sorry if you feel that that's what I've been doing; it certainly hasn't been my intention.

I think I'm actually quite easy to please: for example, you could just add a new section to the BP saying, "I'm going to run a bot to do ______; any objections?", then wait a little bit. I'm not sure why you feel that I'm hard to please; is it that you don't want to create such sections? Is it that you've given up on ever having consensus, so you find it obstructive to try? I truly don't get it.
