Gnus wouldn't be Gnus if there wasn't an option to avoid this
annoyance:

,----[ (info "(gnus)Saving Articles") ]

| Process/Prefix::).  If you save bunches of articles using these

| set this variable to `t' instead, you'll be prompted just once for each
| series of articles you save.  If you like to really have Gnus do all
