It's just a plain idea how you can make an irc bot. Possible solutions
are making the buffer bigger or preserving the last message if it
doesn't end with a \n. For WikiLinkBot the first solution works just
fine (If reading the recent changes every 10 minutes just works fine,
making a bigger buffer should do the job (max. 500 edits in 600
seconds, then just make the buffer a little bigger).
