Sorry, I cannot follow.  @xqt 14:56, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I think something like Fixing/normalizing coordinates will be much more descriptive then Wikipedia python library; cosmetic changes. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:42, 13 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that comment will become more meaningful. But I didn't made test edits yet for this request. That message was done while preparing the last run requested at Commons:Administrators'_noticeboard#Category:Pages_with_malformed_coordinate_tags to touch these pictures because I found some problems with access rights until re-login the bot.  @xqt 04:51, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If there are no objections, I think bot status should be granted. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:18, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
