Thank you for contributing to the antiabuse initiative.
Education is a key factor to reduce the abuse on Steemit. Thanks to your bot guiding users to source their posts is now easy accessable. I am sure that it will help several users to do better in future posts.
Also the curators feedback in this post gives some insights in how this bot can affect the work of curators and abuse fighters.
Well done!

Thanks for doing this! It may seem like such a simple idea, but it’s really helpful. Curators at c-squared are already talking about how useful it is. Thanks for that
Thanks for contacting Pancakes Express!

anywhere on the blockchain and we will send you a menu.It definitely does sound better to have curators approach the said offenders before sending a barrage of flags.
I think most of us prefer people changing their ways than being stubborn to the bitter end.
Don’t you ever just want to flag first?? 😂😜
Nah, you’re completely right.. I think we just want to make sure things are done right and we are rewarding the right people. Hopefully this helps educate a bit.
Yes, that has happened on occasions. Like those bidding on plagiarized content.
I have been waiting for this bot and have already used it, thank you @themarkymark :)
Another great tool!
Curators or spam fighters may understand the language there calling the bot on. So, they may command the bot with a language shortcode (ISO 639-1).
E.g.:
!sources BN
or!sources bn
If it can be implemented this may help the bot recognizing the language if there is no language tag in the post.
I can help with Bengali translation if needed.
I was going to see how it goes, if there is a frequent occurrence of no tag, I was going to add sources [language]
Is there a lot of Begnali content on Steem? If so, would love a translation, just send me a HackMD link.
Since a language tag isn't always used, or variants are used - #es, #espanol - what about having the bot reply to the same command in different langauges, with that language? That isn't perfect either I suppose, since the word is the same in some languages. But if someone writes !quellen it could reply in German. Or would that require multiple bots?
