User:PolyBOT for bot status

• Nomination: I hereby request the Bot flag for User:PolyBOT for the following purposes:

  Replacing of {{top}} and {{mid}} with {{trans-top}}, {{trans-top|concisedef}} and {{trans-mid}} when in translations sections. {{top2}}/{{mid2}} otherwise. {{bottom}} also gets converted to {{trans-bottom}}.

  It's not implemented yet, but it might convert translations lines to a {{t|iso|term}} template form as well, when I get around to integrating the code I already created for that purpose into it.

  After the bot does its 'magic', there is a manual step where I check what it's going to do. Sometimes I add another translation (usually Dutch), or I convert to a t-template myself. If there is only one definition, it gets copied to {{trans-top|...}} integrally, and I tend to clean that up as well. When there are many definitions, {{rfc-trans}} is added. Cleaning up the translations sections is outside the scope of this bot. The main purpose is to make sure {{top}} and {{mid}} can start to be used as iso639-3 templates.
