I would call the deliberate removal of good text "Wikitheft" instead of "Wikicrime". -- PFHLai 20:38, 2004 Aug 19 (UTC)

Perhaps Wikitheft is a specific Wikicrime. But let's not dwell too much on the negative side of things. If this page is going to help develop Wikilove (and I think it might), it's going to be by making negative comments briefer, more concise, more dispassionate (I guess that means less passionate but somehow I like the other phrase better).

Thoughtcrime? Sounds like a malicious edit that slipped under the radar. I thought I'd post in discussion before removing it. If you revert my edit, be sure to post in my talk explaining why. --Utopianfiat

There's lot of stuff under the category of crime...Regeane Silverwolf 01:14, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

is this really neccecary? after all, all "wikicrime" can be undone with the click of a button, and all disruptive people are systematically blocked or mediated with... Blueaster 03:18, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

I would like to propose an additional time of wikicrime - the wikipoach. This is when a paid or advertised service uses articles from the wikipedia. While not actually criminal or unethical it is a bit lazy. Pspealman 01:52, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Confession of wikicrime in Col. Sabow case

I am posting to publicly recognize that I committed a wikicrime in the Colonel James Sabow article before it was blanked and rewritten. My desire for wikijustice and my m:transwikian editing philosophy caused me to edit inappropriately in the hope of learning wikijustice by perpetrating its opposite. Please accept my apologies.
