Heh. I fell off of contributing in recent years, but there was a time back in the day when my edit count was in the top hundred or so. Your impression is completely wrong.

Anyway, this discussion here isn't going to affect what the people on Wikipedia are doing, so it doesn't really matter. I linked to the project page above and it's quite clear that even this "AI Cleanup" project is not in any way fundamentally opposed to using AI, they're just focused on ensuring that editors using it are adhering to Wikipedia's guidelines. If you think AI can't do that then clearly your concept of how AI is useful is too limited.
