Editing Eurovision Wiki:WikiProject AI Cleanup/Noticeboard (section)

== Possible AI Agent? ==

I've been working for a few days to untangle 100s of totally unsourced and often fictional edits by {{noping|Clarentius2011}}. The account was created on December 30, 2025, then immediately begins making trivial changes across large swathes of articles on a few specific themes. None of the individual edits are big enough for me to gauge whether the text itself is LLM-generated, but the editing pattern is very odd. The edits they make are complex enough that it doesn't seem like a human gaming Extended Confirmed, but they are nearly always vacuously pointless. The user never uses an edit summary, never replies to comments, rarely cites a source, and seems obsessed with making small formatting and language changes to every article involving flags, and inserting what seems to at least sometimes be completely made-up info information to fill out infoboxes. Then every once in a while they dip into subtly ideological content. The account is now blocked, and I have nearly finished cleaning up the mess, but I am curious what the rest of y'all think. -- [[User:LWG|LWG]] [[User_talk:LWG|<sup>talk</sup>]] [[User:LWG/VOPOV|<sup>(VOPOV)</sup>]] 20:58, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

:I can't judge whether this is an AI bot, but if the same activity resumes after the 72 hour block lifts tomorrow, we can indef-block the account. ~[[User:Anachronist|Anachronist]] (who / me) <small>([[User talk:Anachronist|talk]])</small> 03:05, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
:Hi LWG, I suspect this is the same user as a few TAs/legacy IPs who have been making similar edits to some of these pages for a long time. I will keep looking and report back, but wanted to let everyone know in the meantime that I don't think this is an agent.

::Thanks, I don't have much experience with that technology so I wanted a second opinion. -- [[User:LWG|LWG]] [[User_talk:LWG|<sup>talk</sup>]] [[User:LWG/VOPOV|<sup>(VOPOV)</sup>]] 15:23, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
