Function details: Cleans the sandbox. The other bots seem to have gone down. This is an old SoxBot code that has been revived and slightly modified.

Since this is such a simple task and the code already exists for it, and since I pretty much only modified the output data, I boldly made a test run and nothing is broken.—

While Sigma tells me he's just restarted the bot, I don't see harm in multiple bots doing this task in case it goes down again. Speedily Approved. — Earwig ^talk 18:27, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
