This is an effort to collect information about a specific kind of spambot. Their pattern is: creating a user page containing only a short bio (e.g. information about the 'person' using the account) and sometimes adding blog spam in the main namespace ('blog post spamming'). Note that the user page usually mentions a completely different name. For example, MikaylaThompkin on the English Wikibooks introduced themselves as "Maryann". Similar to the NTSAMR pattern, these spambots attempt to appear like real human users.
