Request for Bot Approval

edit

I have a current RFB, which can be found at WP:RFB and can be viewed here.

Bot Purpose

edit

Monitor Special:newpages for spam, using a points system for ranking articles. It then either nominates using WP:PROD, or WP:SPEEDY depending on how sure it is. I am currently working on new features.

Unsure Spam

edit

Articles the bot is unsure about have the template Template:IdentifiedSpam added to them. This places them in the Suspected Spam Articles category.

Miscellaneous Information

edit
  • Programming Language: Java
  • Framework: Customized JWBF (jwbf.sourceforge.net)
  • Amount of edits: No more than once every 5 seconds
  • Bot schedule: I will only run the bot while I am there, and due to my timezone when I am online is not usually peak times.
  • Internal error: If the program has an internal error it will immediately stop updating/reading pages, and show me the error.
