[edit] Vandal warning
on 1/12/07 you tagged the IP 38.116.11.34 with a vandalism warning. I am a network administration for the company that owns that IP address. Can you tell me which article was vandalized and at what time? We would like to track down the individual and make sure this does not happen again.
[edit] -
Hey, When you ae warning users can you use test1 or test2 first rather than going straight to test4 or blatantvandal. Thanks. ViridaeTalk 20:58, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your notification on WP:AIV
Are you sure what does is vandalism? They might just be updating the player information, but I've got no clue about sports. Sandstein 22:47, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, this is very odd behaviour. I'll apply a brief block. May we rely upon you to revert their edits so far? Thanks, Sandstein 22:54, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Couple of quick reminders
Hi,
When using certain template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template.
Also, Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button 
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!
Thanks! :)

[edit] Edit War (Not Really)
I would hardly call it an edit war. In my opinion an edit war is when editors put at least LOGICAL information in and out. This is more like a vandalism war, I've asked that the McDonalds page be semi-protected, becaue I checked and the only person doing it is an IP, I wish I could block him (hes' gotten like 5 warning without being blocked) but sadly I'm nowhere near becomming an admin, so we'l just have to hope that one of them pick up on it. If you think of anything else let me know. --Daniel()Folsom T|C|U 23:51, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject on Vandalism studies Study 1 is complete.
The WikiProject on Vandalism studies recently finished its first study and has published its conclusions (a full and detailed copy of the conclusions can be found here).
The first study analyzed a randomly sampled pool of 100 random articles. Within these 100 articles there were a total of 668 edits during the months of November 2004, 2005, and 2006. Of those 668 edits, 31 (or 4.64%) were a vandalism of some type. The study's salient findings suggest that in a given month approximately 5% of edits are vandalism and 97% of that vandalism is done by anonymous editors. Obvious vandalism is the vast majority of vandalism used. From the data gathered within this study it is also found that roughly 25% of vandalism reverting is done by anonymous editors and roughly 75% is done by wikipedians with user accounts. The mean average time vandalism reverting is 758.35 minutes (12.63 hours), a figure that may be skewed by outliers. The median time vandalism reverting is 14 minutes.
Currently the project is working on a related study, Wikipedia:WikiProject Vandalism studies/Obama article study, and is also beginning to draft up the parameters of our second major study (see Study 2). If you are still interested in our work (your name is on the participant's list), please participate in our efforts to help create a solid understanding of vandalism and information on wikipedia by contributing to discussions of past studies or by helping plan up and coming ones. Thanks. JoeSmack Talk 04:54, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
