[edit]

If successful in trial, VandalBot could entirely eliminate the need for human vandalism, saving hard-working vandals the trouble of writing nonsense and garbage.

Absolutely! In fact, it's designed to do everything listed in this policy. Avandal 04:41, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Can it replace humaniod trolls concentrating on religious articles and associated articles like, Football, Rugby, Cricket etc Gnangarra 05:26, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Of course. If it detects a revert war in progress, it will revert the article exactly three times per 24 hours and one second. If it then gets blocked, it will also start posting incoherent rants about admin abuse when no rules were broken. Avandal 05:29, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
