There are no technical problems with this bot, but why do we need a bot to own a template placement on an article? — xaosflux Talk 03:41, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
- Anti-vandalism. When it dies down, or if the template isn't needed anymore, he can shut the bot off. --ST47Talk 10:05, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
- Isn't that what page protection is for? — xaosflux Talk 00:55, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
- Semi protection is ineffective, because the user in question has hundreds of sleeper accounts. Full protection would cause far too much collateral damage. Martinp23 08:55, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
