: Hi Tera. Thanks for the hard work you've been putting in. We'd been discussing it a bit on Elassint's talk page, although this is probably a more logical place for it. There may be some [[:Category:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]] extensions we can use to prevent this from happening. I have noticed that some pages get hit more than others, but at other times, it seems like the bot is using the "Random Page" link. If the pages they hit are not random, then protecting the pages would work. If they are random, we'll need to have a system-wide solution. --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 16:02, 8 September 2011 (PDT) | : Hi Tera. Thanks for the hard work you've been putting in.
