Function details: This bot will be used to create accounts for users who register via the meta:Programs & Events Dashboard. The dashboard is currently integrated here at enwiki, this the request here instead of at meta. This account will only be used to create accounts approved by an event coordinator, and only when the coordinator is unable to directly create the account due to rate limiting. The coordinators account name will appear in the creation log notes for such accounts as well.
For trial, bot will need +confirmed, +eventcoordinator. — xaosflux Talk 02:41, 24 January 2019 (UTC) reply
