I have posted an extensive analysis of what was going on on wikien-l. Basically, it looks like Alexandros was running one of the bot-programs to test it, and did not clean up his mess afterward (he made 4 edits with it, all 4 incorrect, and I have not seen it being used before or after). On the mailing list I advised him to only use that specific program on test.wikipedia.org until he understands it, however:
1) I don't think he is reading the mailing list, and 2) He seems to have already decided to leave Wikipedia.
