Hello,
I have been willing for quite a long time now to create an anti-vandalism channel on IRC dedicated to projets with a small community and with few edits (usually called "small projects"). There are already some tools [1] but I think an IRC channel would be really practical. Despite TangoTanto's great efforts and help, I have not been able to run pgk's bot [2] reporting possible vandalism for dozens of projets on the same IRC channel. So now I am asking for help from people who are more skilled than me in technical stuff and Python (although being more skilled than me in those fields isn't very difficult). I have already registered a channel on freenode [3] where TangoTango and I have been trying to run the bot correctly for weeks, in vain.
Being able to watch vandalism on small projects is really important since there are few people to revert them. Please help running the bot or modifying it so as to be able to manage multiple small projects on the same channel.
Thanks.

When there are serious vandal-problems on a small wiki because there are no (active)sysops you can ask for help on the steward channel.

The can help out and/or make you sysop for a couple of hours to deal with the emergency.

Yes, I know that, I'm always on this channel. The point here is not to get someone to revert / block / delete nonsense, it is to *notice* vandalism (just like other anti-vandalism channels do).

Thanks to Tangotango's great work, there is now a working channel monitoring 20 small wikis. People willing to help can join us in #wikimedia-swmt on freenode
That's great, thanks for the effort.
