ClueBot

Operator: Winbots

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Manually assisted until I have corrected all bugs and false positives are few and far between.

Programming Language(s): PHP, my own classes to interact with Misplaced Pages's query.php, api.php, and index.php

Function Summary: Reverting vandalism.

Edit period(s) (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): Continuous

Edit rate requested: Only as often as it finds vandalism via Special:RecentChanges, but no faster than 10 edits per minute.

Already has a bot flag (Y/N): N

Function Details: Request RecentChanges and perform basic analysis on the data returned. If it finds something suspicious, request more information about that page and perform more in depth analysis on that information. If it determines that it looks like vandalization and it is in read-only mode: send information to owner. If it determines that it looks like vandalization and it is in read-write mode, request more information on user. If user has a long history on Misplaced Pages, log incident, but do nothing. If user is new/IP address, revert, log incident, and post a notice on the user's talk page.

The bot will also set it's user page and it's source code page when starting.
