In any case, I think this is interesting at a global level because the Wiki's at greatest risk of collecting garbage are often the ones with the least activity.
After seeing that one of the Wikipedias had its main page changed to say "Welcome to the Runescape trading forum", I wondered if it would be useful to setup a bot to check recent changes on all the smaller wikis for insertions of English text. .. With the hope that the worst of the junk on small wikis would be in inappropriate languages.
It would be really nice if we had a single recentchanges page that aggregated all the low activity wikis.
I think this is a great idea. Is it possible to set up several RC bots (in different wiki's) to work in a single RC channel? If this could be done with the bots displaying a snippet of any added text, it should be easy to recognize any english which does not belong.
