  • Merge with Vandalism on Wikipedia into the fighting vandalism page. The sources are borderline, and this seems like something that could be better covered under the larger topic. TonyBallioni ( talk) 17:33, 7 July 2017 (UTC) reply
TonyBallioni, are you saying that the BBC and the Verge are borderline, or the amount of sources is borderline? L3X1 (distænt write) )evidence( 19:09, 7 July 2017 (UTC) reply
The coverage is borderline. Perhaps it would be better to say I was agreeing with Anarchyte's analysis of the sourcing, but that I think instead of keeping as a separate article, where there is a weak argument for it by GNG, that there is a very strong argument for expanding or improving the coverage at the linked article, and redirecting the bot article to it.

@ TonyBallioni and L3X1: FWIW, I'd also support a merge. Anarchyte ( work | talk) 01:05, 8 July 2017 (UTC) reply
FWIW, I'd also support closing as Redirect and merge from history per below. I typically prefer that as a close, but do think there might be content worth merging here, which is why I had that as my bold !vote. TonyBallioni ( talk) 00:17, 10 July 2017 (UTC) reply
