About this data
This page measures three statistics about bot editing on Wikipedia: the median length of consecutive bot edits, the longest observed bot edit streak, and the standard deviation of streak lengths. The data are extracted from the public revision history of Wikipedia articles, identifying bot edits by the bot flag or known bot user‑agents. Examining these streaks reveals how automated editing patterns change over time, a topic that has not been published before due to the technical difficulty of isolating bot activity from human edits.
