Tonight there have been two incidents i've noticed where mass-spambots have been set on to the English Wikipedia. These spambots have been blanking articles probably at a rate of 100 articles a minute, and as that is the time it is normally taking an admin to notice and block the bots are causing a lot of disruption.
I don't know where these bots have come from, but they seem capable of quickly deleting content. The contributions for [[User:Whoever blocks me has no life!]] shows what I mean.
