Programming Language(s): PHP.

Function Summary: Clone of SelketBot (in functionality; source code is NOT identical). MadmanBot performs an IP whois request when anonymous editors' talk pages are edited (it never checks the same IP address more than once). If the IP address is owned by a college/university/school, {{SharedIPEDU}} is added, including the organization name.

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

Edit rate requested: You know the drill. maxlag = 5. In reality, it'll probably edit very, very rarely and very, very, slowly.

Indeed not. I went a little over because the bot was having problems and I had to roll them back. Oh, and because I had it on screen and forgot about it.  ;) — madman bum and angel 05:35, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
