Re: Help on Vandalism
[edit]Warning IP vandals is fun and easy. You essentially treat them like other users, by leaving a message on the IP's talk page (such as [[User_Talk:127.0.0.1]]). Vandalism templates are common, and here they are, with a brief description:
- If it's a test edit or something and not vandalism: {{subst:test|PageName}} ~~~~
- If it's innocent-looking removal of content: {{subst:test1a|PageName}} ~~~~
- If it's blanking a section: {{subst:test2a|PageName}} ~~~~
- If it's adding utter nonsense: {{subst:test2|PageName}} ~~~~
- This is the first vandalism warning proper, for edits that are clearly vandalism: {{subst:test3|PageName}} ~~~~
- For flagrant vandalism: {{subst:blatantvandal|PageName}} ~~~~
- The "Last Warning": {{subst:test4|PageName}} ~~~~
If, after adding the appropriate messages on the IP's talk page, they still continue, your best bet is to leave a message at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Overall, though, the best strategy is to wait a day or so. Most IP vandals, unless they're persistent, will vandalize a page constantly for a few hours, then lose interest and go somewhere else, at which point you can revert back to the last good version and call it a day.
Hope that helps! Ourai т с 23:05, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
Dragonfable
[edit]The article was deleted because of Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Dragonfable_(2nd_nomination), Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/DragonFable, Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Dragon Fable (3rd nomination) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DragonFable (4th nomination)). The deletion was discussed 4 times and each time resulted in a deletion. If you feel like the subject should have an article, bring the issue to Wikipedia:Deletion review and explain what has changed about it since those discussions. Thanks. - Bobet 16:38, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
