[edit] Summary

AutoRevert is a Perl script that allows for the near-instant reversion of vandals' edits.

[edit] Technical Details

Using the Net::IRC Perl module, AutoRevert watches the #en.wikipedia channel on browne.wikimedia.org for edits. If it finds an edit made by the targeted user, it automatically rolls back that edit. Additionally, AutoRevert can also be ordered to revert any on-top contributions in a user's last 50 edits. AutoRevert utilizes the perlwikipedia bot framework for its editing functions.

[edit] Download

AutoRevert is currently not available for public use. It is an extremely powerful script which could potentially cause some mayhem on the wiki. If you would like to use AutoRevert, contact me via the methods described on my user page. This may change in the future, however, it is too likely for abuse at this point.
