Article: Dan Quayle

Heuristic: smallchange/obscenities
Reason: making a minor change with obscenities

What happened

The obscenity was a direct quote from a George Carlin comedy routine. Carlin utters reference to Quayle by slandering the man as being "fucking nuts". I provided a link which displays the voice of Carlin within this routine beyond reasonable doubt. This edit was done in the 'dan quayle in popular culture' section.

No obscenity here, hence false positive. Edit may not have been a good one, but the revert was for the wrong reason.

What happened

The entry for "Anachronism (game)" needed serious revision. It no longer accurately reflected the status of the game (or the game's company), it was difficult to navigate, and had become exceedingly long. Most of the deleted material was a lengthy list, which was moved to a new page: List of Anachronism (game) Sets.

The bot reverted a good faith effort to move the plot summaries to a new article. Not everyone may agree with the move, but that's a content dispute, not vandalism. Note: I am not the reverted user, I'm just reporting it. Cheers, GentlemanGhost (talk) 23:26, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Bold good faith reduction in article size.

This is the third time I've had my edits reverted. I was originally 69.138.16.202, but I registered an account because I thought it would help me avoid cluebot's disruptive editing. It didn't work.

Looking at the size of your daily log, assuming most people whose edits are reverted put in a report, your bot does seem to be fairly accurate.

However, if it's possible, I'd appreciate it if you could modify your bot's algorithms to fine tune its accuracy. Even though you only get about 10 false positive reports a day out of thousands of vandalism reverts, you may be reverting good faith edits far more than you realize because of the people that simply don't put in a report.

Discussion

Actually, I took a closer look at the diffs on this page and I was wrong. Your bot gets false positives more often than I realized. It's still fairly accurate, but please, please do some work on it. Zenwhat (talk) 14:23, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Heuristic: pageblank
Reason: blanking the page

What happened

User Reswobslc has mistakenly redirected Reverse Funnel System to Pyramid Scheme. The Reverse Funnel System is a trademarked and proprietary direct sales marketing system used to promote and sell luxury travel programs such as GRN, a 21 old private luxury travel company. Unlike pyramid schemes, the Reverse Funnel System does not require front loading of consumer products in order to earn income. GRN members can either choose to market travel services or remain consumers of the products and are not required to recruit people into the business. Additionally, GRN does not require that members purchase their products in order to market them on behalf of GRN.

Discussion

You should have listed it for deletion instead of just deleting it. That aside, had you taken the time to put an edit summary, the bot would not have reverted you. Thanks. -- Cobi(t|c|b) 22:11, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Reportage of a football-related incident. Word used *is* regarded as offensive which is why it was a news story in the first place. Some newspapers printed the word in relation to the incident reported and the presence of the word in this wikipedia article is emphatically not intended as abuse.
