Cluebot NG

Cluebot NG (CBNG) is a Misplaced Pages anti-vandalism bot. CBNG was created as the successor to Cluebot. It uses machine learning and a set of rules to determine if recent changes are vandalism or disruptive to Misplaced Pages.

Beginnings

CBNG was created by Christopher Breneman and Cobi Carter in 2010. CBNG shares very little in relationship to the original Cluebot, except its name and how they interface with Misplaced Pages. NG stands for Next Generation.

How it Works

Criticism

Some people hate CBNG, and call it "rubbish".
