Description Prodego 2007-07-25 05:09:42 UTC Currently, pages created by bots are hidden from Special:Recentchanges (by default), but they can not be hidden on Special:Newpages. Sometimes bots create runs of short stub articles from another source, and clog Special:Newpages, making New page patrol difficult.
