Reverting vandalism
[edit]Hi Carl, when you revert vandalism, like you did here, it's a good idea to also warn the vandal about their behavior. That way they will hopefully not do that in the future, and will become useful contributors. Wikipedia:Vandalism has some of the warnings you can use. Thanks! --AW 22:39, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, thanks; I was aware of that formality, and have used it in the past. Unfortunately, I went on a bit of a vigilante spree there and just got rid of the "WOO HOO FROM YOU DON'T KNOW WHOOOOOOO!!! :)" bit without stopping to think that the person in question might have a valid contribution to make/might reform later in life to become a functional member of society... lol. :D. I'll bear that in mind, seriously. --Carl Turner 13:55, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
