Bot requests on the English Wikipedia generally require one specific task to be stated, not just a general request to run some script. This sort of one-off ad-hoc task sets are normally handled using a different tool such as WP:AWB/ WP:JWB. And you shouldn't run the bot before getting approval as you just did.
