Wherebot has existed at the English language Wikiversity since July 2006 (w:User:Wherebot). Owner: w:User:Where (User:Where).
Wherebot aims to tag newly created articles that are copyright violations with {{db-copyvio}}. It is written in perl, and utilizes Net::IRC, Yahoo's search API, wget, and replace.py (from pywikipediabot).
Example [edit]
A page exists for Wherebot to list possible copyright violations: Wikiversity:Suspected copyright violations.
