It seems that the bot only wanted to sync statements, so the claim is on both items instead of one. You've only removed the statements at one side, so another bot could do the same again and add the statements back.

I didn't revert a bot.  I removed a few erroneous statements that a bot made incorrectly.

Actually you didn't talk about it, but still you can ask him for explanations. Generally reverting a bot which is working fine (since the mistake, if any, is onwiki) is useless.

Great.

ValterVB doesn't think I am right in removing them and has reverted them.

I think I now remember why I left Wikipedia... too many chiefs who think they know better, rather than talking through things as a community.

Partner City (an alias of that Sister City description) does even help make them closer to any sister city.

If anyone disagrees with me, then you would have to fully describe what the property Sister City really means...because there is little to go on other than the idea of a "twin city". ​

From a technical point of view there's nothing wrong with those statemets.

Original infos were added by https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/ILoveKorea which doesn't seem to be a vandal. How did you find they are wrong?

OK, it seems that Wikipedia does have a few nice features. :)

I was able to quickly search History on the entity and find that Dexbot had imported the erroneous statements https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Dexbot  <-- pretty cool options there, Good Job whomever !

and let the User (owner of the bot) know of the problem.  https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User_talk:Ladsgroup

I had to clean up this entity that had Sister City property filled in with lots of erroneous statements for it that I removed.

https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q185684

How can I figure out where the import went wrong, how it happened, and how to ensure it doesn't happen again ?  How does one look at Wikidata bots and their efficiency or incorrectness ?

Trying to learn more,
