contributions; then if vandalism is found, in one click they can revert it, post the appropriate warning template on the vandal's talk page, add that person to their blacklist and add the revert to their automated vandalism log. Deciding on the correct warning is also easy, as a user's warning history is automatically found and clearly displayed. </p><p>When it comes to finding vandalism to revert, VandalProof again shows its power. The automatic RSS feed or alternative standard list of recent changes is displayed in a clear manner, colourising edits based on user preferences, clearly marking suspect edits and filtering everything against a comprehensive bad-words list. </p><p>VandalProof has a large tool kit, with many more features at users' disposal. Articles can be <span class="nowrap">{{</span><a href="/wiki/Template:Prod" class="mw-redirect" title="Template:Prod">prod</a><span class="nowrap">}}</span>ed or nominated for speedy deletion, and Interwiki moves can be completed with one click. The <i>Notify Contributors</i> feature means that the editors of the articles can be contacted with just a few clicks, and sending a message to them is done automatically. Furthermore, VandalProof provides tools such as the ability to easily report users to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:AIV" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:AIV">WP:AIV</a>, to monitor user contributions, and to post a variety of common templates and warnings on user talk pages. </p><p>The vandalism log feature allows users to keep track of all their reversions - this can be uploaded for others to view, or can be kept offline for viewing at your leisure. Mistakes happen, and these can be shown in the log as well. The warnings posted by the program provide more information to users, allowing them to find where they went wrong. </p><p>VandalProof has over 1400 users, all of whom help stop vandalism on Wikipedia.

VP began as a simple rollback gizmo and never had an architecture in place that would allow it to grow into the disgustingly horrible thing that it is now--because of this, new features were added by blindly dumping hundreds of lines of code into a variety of methods without annotation, making sweeping, undocumented changes to its primal data structures, and completely eradicating all order. If you are capable of understanding the code, you will be far ahead of me. </p><p>Nonetheless, many think they may have luck at fixing the darn thing. If you are among them, you must also meet the following conditions to get access to the source code: </p> <ol><li>Access will only be given to Wikipedia contributors in good standing, preferably administrators (although not a necessary condition), with a <i>minimum</i> of 500 mainspace contributions, no recent blocks, and no history of disruptive editing and user interactions.</li> <li>Users must have advanced knowledge of the VB6 programming language, ActiveX and COM development, javascript, and MediaWiki. Preferably, users should have partaken in other programming projects on Wikimedia, such as <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:AWB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:AWB">WP:AWB</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WDM" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:WDM">WP:WDM</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:EDITCOUNT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:EDITCOUNT">WP:EDITCOUNT</a>, etc.</li> <li>Preference will be given to users who have assisted or are willing to assist in the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VP2" title="Wikipedia:VP2">WP:VP2</a> project (either in hosting bots, moderating, or application development, which requires knowledge of Java 1.5) and users who are willing to beta-test and help develop the <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiMonitor" class="extiw" title="m:WikiMonitor">m:WikiMonitor</a> project.</li></ol> <p>If you believe you meet these conditions, please <a href="/wiki/Special:EmailUser/AmiDaniel" title="Special:EmailUser/AmiDaniel">e-mail AmiDaniel</a> using WikiMedia's email function. Include in the e-mail the following: </p> <ol><li>Your Wikipedia username.</li> <li>The name under which you wish to receive accreditation for your contributions to the project (preferably your real name). This name will be used in copyright notices and release notes associated with the software.</li> <li>The username you would wish to use to access the project. This username may contain <i>only alphanumeric characters</i>; prohibited characters included spaces (" ") and underscores ("_").</li> <li>The password you would wish to use to access the project. DO NOT USE AN IMPORTANT PASSWORD! Keep in mind that you are emailing it to me, and everyone knows I can't be trusted :D. After you have logged in with it once, you will be able to change it should you choose to.</li> <li>A brief explanation of how you wish to improve the project and of your previous programming and Wikimedia experience.</li> <li>A statement that you agree not to publish the code, in part or in whole, or to reuse parts of the code without permission. You must also state that you agree to release your contributions to the project under joint copyright by Daniel Cannon and all other VP-contributors.
