Coding the semi-auto bot in Applescript is hard, because Applescript ain't too powerful and I'm not quite good enough. I'm going to keep trying to code it for a few days, but just so I don't waste effort, is AWB capable of this sorta thing? I mean, selecting random sentences and putting them on the clipboard for Googling.
If I can't finish this, would any of you Wikipedians be so kind as to write a script for me to run? Thanks, Chris

Yes, please work on a anti-copyvio bot. I've seen several bad things on the increase (you don't want to see newpages right now) Any tool that automates part of the process is useful. Like someone said earlier: it's good if you make it semi-automatic, to filter out false positives. Ask help of other bot-builders if you need it.

Well, I'll use the list of mirrors in my script too and since I manually check each edit, I can pretty easily tell that it's an other-way-around copyvio (e.g. if wikilinks/section headers are preserved)

When featuring the script, don't limit it to just excluding en.wikipedia.org-- in fact, filter out any mention of "wikipedia".
There are a lot of mirrors out there that do not credit us. DB had a lot of problems with his bot.
