This was like 10 years ago. Long before the real invasion of the bots. I don't even remember the username or password of my account any more.

The main anti-vandalism bot ClueBot was created in 2007, and its successor ClueBot NG in 2010. They certainly have false positives from time to time, but that doesn't mean they aren't the most useful bots on the website.
It aims to have a false positive rate of 0.1%
Anti-vandalism bots have been used for much longer than 10 years lol
Don't know, don't care. Wikipedia is not a major source of information for me any more, the summaries from various search engines are enough.

For everything else there's grok.
