VandalSniper is a counter-vandalism tool that focuses on automating the more tedious aspects of RC patrol. It started as a featurewise port of VandalProof to Mono/Gtk#, with the goal of bringing a native RC patrol tool to the Linux desktop. Some of the highlights of VandalSniper include:
- Unlimited browser tabs.
- Uncluttered, resizable UI.
- Changes listed on the Recent Changes tab display various characteristics of the edit, which can be used to locate likely vandalism.
- User links are annotated with a red link that will display a menu of common user-related tasks.
- Edits of blacklisted users are displayed in realtime.
- Similarly, edits to watchlisted pages are displayed in realtime.
- Cross platform. (Theoretically at least. Linux is the only OS known to run it, but Microsoft Windows should support it soon.)
This tool is no longer maintained. Consider using Huggle instead, which is available on Linux. |
