Hello! I wanted to inquire whether there is a way to fight regional Vandalism on Wikipedia? For instance, fighting vandalism emanating from edits by wikipedians in Kenya plus vandalism on articles about Kenya by other editors from elsewhere. stephenWanjau Talk to Me.

You can watchlist any Kenya related article if it receives a lot of vandalism. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 14:25, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well said. Thanks stephenWanjau Talk to Me. Email Me.

First revert

[edit]

I managed to get this user who created an account that so happens to be in bad faith. The userpage describes a product which is the account name and further puts external links to the product website in the userpage. Advice whether I did the right thing at the talk page while reverting this. ThanksstephenWanjau Talk to Me. Email Me. 08:43, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In such cases, mark the page for speedy deletion using {{Db-g11}}. Then you can warn the user using {{Uw-advert1}}. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 09:08, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Archiving my talk page messages

[edit]

Though I understand that this is out of the scope of the CVU but I have been struggling to find the best way to archive my talk-page messages. As such I would like to have a search functionality in the archived messages. Pointers would be highly appreciated. SUwanja Talk to Me. Email Me. 15:07, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Try User:ClueBot III, its a great way to archive. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 15:12, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Use of Uncivil language.

[edit]

I have come across this users contributions which were vandal in nature here. The user went ahead to post a nasty message on my user page here. The user has several warnings on their talkpage and seems he/she is out to do harm on Wikipedia. Kindly advise of any other steps I can take. Thank you. Uwanja Talk to Me.

That is a uncivil comment. In future cases, give a warning on the attacker's talk page. You can use twinkle for that. In case the user has already received a level 4 or level 4im warning, feel free to report him at WP:AIV. Also if you feel that its a highly extreme attack, revert it. In case it contains sensitive content, you can even request revision deletion. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 09:54, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WP:IGLOO

[edit]

I successfully launched the WP:Igloo anti-vandal tool but unfortunately I can't make my way around it. I have tried to look for help on line but unsuccessful. Please help me with that. Uwanja Talk to Me. Email Me. 09:39, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have posted this question on Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit/Academy/Questions. :) ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 10:00, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
