   == Lilibot coming ==
   Hi everyone. A while back we noticed LinguaLibre, a Wikimedia project, have been uploading load of audio recording in {language}. Adding those audios to our wiki can be supported by their bot, LinguaLibre Bot. Also, we engaged with their team to tinker their bot for that purpose. We are waiting the green lights from the developer, testing via small edits, and we will run this bot in few a few weeks. Also, please if you see edits coming in from "LinguaLibre bot", thanks to sample its edits, and report to us [[:LinguaLibre:LinguaLibre:Bot]] for Q&A or else. Do I forget something ? A place where to also announce this arrival ? Please tell me. Sincerely ~~~~ and the LinguaLibre's team ;)"
10. wait: Wait 7 days (recommended).
11. active: Activate the bot with edit msg linking to the help page.

Steps along life

Other status are also possible :

• paused: when a bot had already been created, demonstrated, but is in pause. With a comment.
• blocked: when the bot is blocked, for various reason. Please notify LinguaLibre:Bot and point to the relevant discussions.
