Fix your bot

Please fix your bot - see these edits: . I will block it if it continues to revert legitimate edits. Is this completely automated? I'm skeptical that reverting vandalism can ever be performed by a bot. There are many legitimate reasons for removing large amounts of content from an article. Rhobite 16:20, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Edit summaries

You should use an edit summary like "reverting probable vandalism", rather than referring to a large blanking, as clearly some edits that the bot reverts are not large blankings. JesseW, the juggling janitor 19:46, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

I was actually suggesting you use a non-specific edit summary; large blankings is more specific than "reverting probable vandalism"... JesseW, the juggling janitor 02:56, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

How does this Current Events blurb come up as vandalism?

This diff:

Not my edit and PFHLai put it back in, but I'm scratching my head as to why it saw that as vandalism. TransUtopian 04:23, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
