We don't know for certain that they're human. That said, why would a spambot try to use the Wikipedia app? You're only creating extra hurdles for yourself by doing so. I've seen no evidence so far that anyone except humans use the Wikipedia app. Well, and Googlebot, but it reports itself to us using a special user agent and also only reads articles. :-) Dan -- Dan Garry Associate Product Manager, Mobile Apps Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
