Today, the home page was spammed with edits by "alip" apparently but "alip" never seems to have made said edits. Regardless it bumped a ton of questions and now the home page is quite crowded. First, is this a bug? Second, did "Alip" actually make these edits? Third, are these types of mass-editing unanswered questions allowed? Fourth, (if applicable) what can be done to prevent this?
alip did actually write a lot of answers, they've just all been deleted (they're there, but you need a certain amount of rep to see deleted answers). I wonder why. At a guess, it'd be because alip appears to be an AI, e.g. their answer to Are engines impaired by the 50-move rule? starts with "The 50-move rule in chess states that a player can claim a draw if no capture has been made and no pawn has been moved in the last 50 moves. It's a rule designed to prevent endless games and to discourage players from persisting in a position with no realistic hope of progress" -- which is completely irrelevant.
