Replacing form of with specific inflection templates templates
Please do not use your bot to replace "form of" template with such templates as "genitive of" and "nominative plural of"; it is silly and unapproved. Example edit: diff.
What are the reasons that come to your mind that the replacement your bot did was a bad idea?
Think harder. At least one disadvantage please.
Ok, comprehension difficulties. Then let's try another one: what are the benefits of the replacement that you have done?
Given you have used your bot in one more unauthorized way in the violation of WT:BOT, I think you are under the obligation to at least explain the benefits or your actions. The other option is that you leave Wiktionary, which is probably long overdue.
You realise I could block you for intimidating behaviour/harassment right now? What you're saying now is pretty much personal attacks against me. Especially after I asked you to stop and leave me alone.
This is obviously none of my business, but 1) Dan's approach could have been more matter-of-factly but 2) "go away" and "I could block you" are not appropriate answers to the question "what are the benefits of the replacements that you have done". Also, it seems to me that CodeCat owes an explanation on how his action is in compliance with WT:BOT.
I have no patience with Dan, what he did here was actually relatively mild compared to what he's said about/to me in the past. So I'm not about to give him any concessions; if he wants my cooperation he has some things to make up for first. If that makes me a bad Wiktionarian then fine with me.
What I did was replace calls to {{form of}} to calls to one of our more specific templates such as {{inflection of}} or the variety of single-use form-of templates that we already have. I didn't see any harm in that then, and I still don't see any now.
