How many K-lines were there?

At the end, there were 1114 active K-lines. 443 were originated by SJOperBot. Of these, 139 were unreviewed due to time constraints--oops! An additional 545 lines added by SJOperBot had been commented. (Most of the bot's K-lines are of temporary value, serving to halt an immediate clonebot attack. These are periodically edited or commented out as they are reviewed.)
