Certain bot tasks routinely get denied as either poorly thought out, lacking consensus, or violating some aspect of the bot policy. Here are some examples of such routinely-denied bots. Keep in mind that consensus can change, and it can always create exceptions for particular, well-defined, tasks.
Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): No Function details: This bot will review newly created redirects by users in the redirect autopatrol list. I will use the same code and the same patrolling rules as the original bot. This is an important task, and the NPP coordination folks suggested running a backup bot until Danny restarts theirs.

Also, if the bot's quickness is a problem, a delay could be implemented on certain badwords/tilde-warned people so that the bot will wait a minute or two before adding signatures in order to allow vandalism reversion; then, it would abort if the page has changed in that period of time (just like it already does).

If PrimeBOT does the PMID, Magic links bot does the ISBN, and Yobot does the dois, that's 300k edits. On the other hand, if one bot does all three, that's only 100k edits. I don't think it's necessarily about the edit count, though, but about clogging up watchlists (which people seem to complain about a fair amount when it comes to bots).
