Now, I don't know the capabilities of the various bots, so I can't tell if AVB or TB2 can watch for this sort of thing, of it possibly I should ask VoA to deal with it with his, but I'd ''really'' appreciate it if you got back with me.

| ==How AntiVandalBot recognizes vandalism== | |||
| Hello. I've been using Misplaced Pages for some time now and I've noticed a lot of difference bots in my time but I was wondering how AVB can tell the difference between regular edits and blatant vandalism. I have no idea how bots function and have no intention of creating a bot in the future, but I'm just curious how he can tell the difference betwen the two. Thanks. | |||
| P.S. - Please reply here and congradulations on all of the awards, your adminship, and all of your hard work here at Misplaced Pages. Keep it up! // ]]]] 02:10, 30 October 2006 (UTC) | |||
| : I did not program the bots, but have been watching and interacting with them for quite a while. I was also given a summary of the then-list of criteria quite a few months back. Basically the bot(s) watch all edits, and parse every one through a set of checks. If the bot matches any of the current criteria, and does not meet any of a number of white-listing criteria, then it is considered a vandalism, and is handled as such. Amoung the white-listing is a list of all admins. The bots are not supposed to revert admins in general. As for the vandalism criteria, I'd rather not say. In general we do not want the information publically out there. But I will give one common example. Page blanking. Blank out a page, and the bot is very likely to flag the edit as vandalism. In general, watch the things that the bot reverts. Each revert triggered at least one vandalism criteria. So look at a revert, at what was done and what was reverted, and think about what it is about that specific edit that the bot could have triggered on. - ] 14:17, 30 October 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::Pretty much, it's now a bot, we moved it to the toolserver and it speeds up things a fair bit. Right now it checks (or is supposed to) all IP edits, all "new" account edits and thats about it. Pretty much it's blatantly obvious things (etc) that get the vandalism, there are a few other things which I don't really want to tip off the vandals in a public channel.

| == Are you a bot - response == | |||
| How are you able to test AVB? I thought that it finds vandalism in a semi-random manner since it can't check every single article at once. Anyway the only reason I caught it fast was because I was repeatedly checking my watchlist back then. ] 19:28, 30 October 2006 (UTC) | |||

BAG membership
Hello. You are listed as a member of the Bot Approvals Group but it appears you may not be actively helping in this area anymore. Do you intend to return to BAG-related activity on Misplaced Pages, or are you happy to be removed from this list? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:57, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder
This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.
Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:35, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks - yes I have had significant time constraints - I will look to re-engage where I can. -- Tawker (talk) 22:18, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
