Edited my reply to his reply http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Talk%3AThird_Positionism&diff=2359792&oldid=2359791
Normally would assume good faith, but have been trading insults since Uriel Milk apparently thinks nazi's are ok.

:Hmmm, it does seem to be a good-faith attempt to shrink the image, as has occurred on (mostly user) talk pages in the past. I'm gonna tentatively rule '''not vandalism''' with a '''soft warning''', although [[UDWiki:Administration/Move_Requests#Third_Positionism|if the page gets moved]] then Levi would be able to re-shrink the image for the ease of reading what would then become his talk page. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 23:24, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
'''Not Vandalism''' - While no one has really been doing it recently, we’ve always allowed people to, within reason, shrink oversized images on pages, owned or otherwise. I know there’s some history here, so it’s one of those things where they should be more careful, but we’ve always viewed this sort of thing as a formatting fix for the sake of readability on the wiki. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 02:33, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

::Welcome.

I've reverted to before the current edits. This template seems to have been used by a few specific people in their userspace — [[User:Cyberbob240|Cyberbob]], [[User_talk:Conndraka/Archive|Conndraka]] and [[User:Pillsy/Template Sanctuary|Pillsy]] — seemingly to [[UDWiki:Administration/Speedy Deletions/Archive/Nov-2006#Criertion 10|protect it from deletion back in 2006]]. I'm tempted to view it as user-owned and therefore protect it. Any comments from other sysops? {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 23:51, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
:Ok, I've also reverted the changes to [[Template:Nationalism]], which is clearly being used by several users who are specifically leftist, and Levi Romero changed to a different political sentiment. Clear impersonation, '''vandalism''' on that one is my ruling. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 00:12, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
:If it alters how templates are seen and used on user pages, then it's clearly '''vandalism'''. {{User:Stelar/sig}} 00:23, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
::Chiming in after the fact, but exactly what Stelar said. It’s clearly bad faith, regardless of questions of ownership, so it’s clearly vandalism. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 04:40, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

{{v|Dragonshardz|Vandalism|Warned}}
Directly ignored the exact wording of his warning he was given [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Dragonshardz&diff=2359204&oldid=2359101 today] by [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=User:Jack%27s_Inflamed_Sense_Of_Rejection/FirstWorldProblems&curid=193147&diff=2359219&oldid=2359147 editing the same page again] in someone else's userspace.
The edit is a difference of +11,362 characters (increasing Audioattack's page size by 30%), most of that content being from the Goons overriding [[UDWiki:Open Discussion/Implementation of UDWiki Discord rules|the original page]] with trolling, drastically changing the original intent of Audioattack's creation of the archive in his userspace.
A wily attempt at loopholing his way into disrupting the page, but something I consider vandalism. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/tcs}} 09:33, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
:Yes, despite the edit summary ("Look ma, it's an edit in good faith!") the context of the edit, and amazingly direct violation of the warning, makes this clearly ''not'' good faith. '''Vandalism'''. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 10:06, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

After being warned just a few days ago about his editing of owned pages, he's continued his pattern of doing so:
# [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Bob_Moncrief&diff=prev&oldid=2359243 Blanking Bob's talk page]
# [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Dragonshardz&diff=prev&oldid=2359274 Deleting my comment from a page that isn't his]
# [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Malton_College_of_Medicine&diff=prev&oldid=2359275 Editing a group page] that isn't his, and then [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Malton_College_of_Medicine&diff=prev&oldid=2359278 doing so again] after [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Malton_College_of_Medicine&diff=next&oldid=2359275 being told not to do so]
And this isn't an issue of him being ignorant of the rules, given that [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=UDWiki:Administration/Vandal_Banning&diff=prev&oldid=2359036 he clearly understands them just fine]. Pretty obviously '''Vandalism''' at this point. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 03:19, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

'''[[UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/List of Arbitrators]]'''
We're having an issue here with my name on the Arbitrators template. I've been trying to sort it via edit messages but ummm its not working out. My justification for my edits is as follows
1. I took on the moniker A HUGE GAPING VAGINA THE SIZE OF A HALLWAY 7 years ago and was known as that. I'm ok with retaining that name because LCpl Mendoza is some pubbie tier shit.
2. I edited myself back onto the arbitrators list in alphabetical order, using that name, with the only addition being the {{WIKILAW}} tag.
3. I have no clue why this is a big deal and am assuming passive/aggressive bullshit is at hand hence this A/VB request.
I'd like for my edits to be held up. While the name I've chosen to represent myself as is ''unconventional'', it is my choice and how I choose to identify myself as. Please back up my request to ensure my entry is no longer vandalized. The entry should read "A HUGE GAPING VAGINA THE SIZE OF A HALLWAY {{WIKILAW}} or at least incorporate the Japanese translation from my sig. --[[Image:F0b515c3623e9654.jpg|14px]] <sup>[[Image:Flame.gif|6px]]</sup>[[Image:Flame.gif|6px]]<sub>[[Image:Flame.gif|6px]]</sub> '''<span style="color: #ff0000">►</span>[[User:LCpl Mendoza|

:By custom on lists lke the one of Arbitrators or the one on [[Project Welcome]], users are listed by a name which is either identical to or extremely close to their actual account name (changing a capital, as with [[User:Boxy|boxy]], or spacing, as with [[User:AnimeSucks|Anime Sucks]]) so that they are readily identifiable by those who are unfamiliar with their "customary names", e.g. new users or those who don't venture frequently into the Administrative parts of the wiki. (Also, templates are allowed as part of signatures, but I can't find a single example of a template being used in someone's customary name, so I'm gonna say that's a no-go.)

For later reference, here are my relevant edits: [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/List_of_Arbitrators&diff=2359170&oldid=2359168 first] and [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/List_of_Arbitrators&diff=2359187&oldid=2359185 second]
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he simply forgot his activity from a few years ago, but a quick check through the page's history shows that the last time he was on the list, he actually ''wasn't'' listed as "A HUGE GAPING VAGINA THE SIZE OF A HALLWAY" like he suggests above. Instead, he was listed as "LCpl Mendoza" for nearly a full year (April 2011 to March 2012) after he engaged in a very similar edit war with a few other users. Oh, and he only made [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/List_of_Arbitrators&diff=2359185&oldid=2359170 one attempt to "sort it via edit messages"] before creating this case, which I responded to with an explanation for why I was reverting it. I'm happy to talk things over, but I'm not going to leave things in a broken state while we do so.
Anyway, given that he's said he won't edit war any further, I'll go ahead and unprotect the page in just a moment. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 19:01, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

New account with 5 edits to 3 pages [[http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Special:Contributions/Pyropardus]].  One of which blanked [[User:Pardus]]'s page, who has not been active in 8 years.  The other edits were to his group page that has also not been edited in 8 years.  This is a dangerous precedent to allow, as then anyone could make an account with a variation on an inactive user's name, and then proceed to edit their user page and associated group page.  --{{User:Gardenator/sig}} 02:55, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
:Hmmm, I think this wasn't flagged as vandalism immediately because of what you're saying — the assumption they're the same person, which I'm not convinced by. I can say that Pardus' last edit was in 2010, which is before the checkuser cutoff, so it's impossible to IP-confirm their identity.

Then anyone could scrawl anything on anyone's page and get away scot free as long as they remember to revert it immediately. I think for the sake of the rest of the community, it is important to stamp down on this and rule it vandalism. As for the impersonation, yeah, it's a little creepy. I can't see a legitimate reason for doing it, and it also sets a dangerous precedent if it is accepted as not vandalism.

He's been deleting user comments from my talk page, restoring comments I removed from my talk page, and undoing my edits on [[ENVY]], which is a group page that I own.

:'''Vandalism''' - Murderess contacted me via Discord to ask about this case and what to say, so she already hit the high points about why these are fairly open-and-shut cases (note my use of the plural). We give people some leeway to delete comments on their own talk pages, but deleting a page owner's comments on their own talk page is nearly always vandalism, and certainly is in this case. And Remember made it abundantly clear it wasn't an accident when they continued deleting/restoring content on the talk page, contrary to the specific efforts of that page's owner. Likewise, using the Undo button to undo edits made by a group's owner on their own group page is not something I can think of any valid excuse for, and given that it comes just a week after the activity on the talk page, it clearly wasn't a mere coincidence.
:Though this was reported as a single case of vandalism, I'm actually inclined to treat these as separate incidents of vandalism and thus issue '''two warnings''', because the actions were on two separate pages and were over a week apart from each other. Thoughts from other 'sops? {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 22:17, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
::Definitely '''vandalism''', although I'd say just one warning since there was only one message (that I can find, from JISOR) asking Remember to stop, and even that wasn't that clear that it was vandalism that was the concern. Any future edits like it and I'm down to warn again. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 22:58, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
::I’m not a sysop and I know I do this a lot but I want to quickly signal that I don’t recall any precedent that two warnings has been done before (at least in a circumstance like this). Surely the fact no one reported Remember for the first edit would have been to him/her an implicit, though incorrect, indication that these kind of edits aren’t vandalism, hence enabling them to think that doing this a second time is ok.

I didn't post that night, which was last week, because after reviewing the guidelines for half an hour I was ever so confused about where, what and how to post. I just dropped it hoping he would get bored and move on. Unfortunately, he has not and its why I made the effort today to seek guidance to post after he edited my group page. He afterwards claimed, in an effort to hide the griefing, that he was doing me a favor by taking out a double post but the reality is that I already had done so and that is exactly what he edited out. For any sysop that can "see" what happened, its quite clear the aim wasn't to be helpful but rather pursuing to annoy me further. --[[User:Murderess|Murderess]] ([[User talk:Murderess|talk]]) 02:57, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

This page is for the reporting of vandalism within the Urban Dead wiki, as defined by vandalism policy. On this wiki, the punishment for Vandalism is temporary banning, but due to security concerns, the ability to mete out this punishment is restricted to System Operators. As such, regular users will need to lodge a report for a Vandal to be banned from the wiki. For consistency and accountability, System Operators are requested to note on this board their actions in dealing with Vandals.

Guidelines for Vandalism Reporting

In dealing with Vandalism, time is often of the essence. As such, we ask that all users include the following information in a Vandalism report:

  • A link to the pages in question.
Preferably bolded for visibility. If the Vandalism is occurring over a sufficiently large number of pages, instead include a time range of the vandalism attempt, or alternatively, a link to the first vandalised page. This allows us to quickly find the damage so we can quickly assess the situation.
  • The user name of the Vandal.
This allows us to more easily identify the culprit, and to check details.
  • A signed datestamp.
For accountability purposes, we ask that you record in your request your user name and the time you lodged the report.
  • Please report at the top.
There's conflict with where to post and a lot of the reports are missed. If it's placed at the top of the page it's probably going to be seen and dealt with.

If you see Vandalism in progress, don't wait for System Operators to deal with it, as there may be no System Operator online at the time. Lodge the report, then start reverting pages back to their original form. This can be done by going to the "History" tab at the top of the page, and finding the last edit before the Vandal's attack. When a System Operator is available, they'll assess the situation, and if the report is legitimate, we will take steps to either warn the vandal, or ban them if they are on their second warning.

If the page is long, you can add new reports by editing the top report and placing your new report above its header in the edit screen.

Before Submitting a Report

  • This page, Vandal Banning, deals with bad-faith breaches of official policy.
  • Interpersonal complaints are better sorted out at UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration.
  • As much as is practical, assume good faith and try to iron out problems with other users one to one, only using this page as a last resort.
  • Avoid submitting reports which are petty.

Vandalism Report Space

Administration Notice
Talk with the user before reporting or accusing someone of vandalism for small edits. In most cases it's simply a case of a new user that doesn't know how this wiki works. Sometimes assuming good faith and speaking with others can avoid a lot of drama, and can even help newbies feel part of this community.
Administration Notice
If you are not a System Operator, the user who made the vandal report, the user being reported, or directly involved in the case, the administration asks that you use the talk page for further discussion. Free-for-all commenting can lead to a less respectful environment.
Administration Notice
Warned users can remove one entry of their warning history every one month and 250 edits after their last warning. To lodge a request for de-escalation, please visit A/DE. You are as responsible for keeping track of your history as the sysops are; In case of a sysop wrongly punishing you due to an outdated history, they might not be punished for their actions.


November

User:Kerkel

Removing content from a group and an user page he has no ownership of. Was escalated back in 2009 and again in 2015 for the very same edits. Aichon 06:33, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

I remember Kerkel’s in-game actions referenced in the 2009 case. Last time I was impressed by his persistence, this time it’s his consistency. Vandalism. THE CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER 10:24, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

August

User:Levi_Romero

Removed some important information here: http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Antifa&diff=prev&oldid=2359865 From a page that uses a template that he has previously been warned against editing. Obviously, trying to edit the page in another way. --Emot-siren.gif LABIA on the INTERNET Emot-siren.gif Dunell Hills Corpseman The Malton Globetrotters#24 - You rated this wiki '1'! Great job, go hog wild!|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| TMG 08:24, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

I'm getting my name off your shitty list Commandant Romero (talk) 08:33, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

Levi's first instance of vandalism was clear-cut and malicious, but the argument over whether his name should be on a page attributing him to something is another thing. If this were a guy taking exception to being called a PKer and removing his name from a PK list, I would say "it's not an administrative issue- take it to arbitration." I don't believe this being about nazis suddenly changes that. It's also worth noting his warning was for editing the context of pages/templates to change the context. It's not for the dispute over whether he is what this page says he is.

However, changing the template is just not on for me- even a small change. For some reason these stupid little troll edits have become common amongst wiki scrappers in the past few months. It's petty. You're already told to stay off the page, and it's obvious you're not welcome there. So stop messing around with how they want a page or a template in a way that doesn't affect you in any way. Vandalism. THE CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER 12:23, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

Seconded on the first part — take it to A/A. As for the template swap, I'm honestly confused by the edit — the two templates express the same sentiment, and are mostly just different in size. No idea why Levi edited to switch them out, so I'm having a hard time parsing whether it's vandalism. Bob Moncrief EBDW! 13:58, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
Given the user in question has requested a permadeletion, it all seems moot. Sniper4625 The Malton Globetrotters#4625 - You rated this wiki '1'! Great job, go hog wild!|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| TMG 14:35, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
Deleting his page doesn’t really mean much. Users frequently come back. Aichon 15:11, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
Fair, was overly optimistic Sniper4625 The Malton Globetrotters#4625 - You rated this wiki '1'! Great job, go hog wild!|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| TMG\

Vandalism - To me, this looks like a group page that specifies who it belongs to and provides instructions for those who believe they were incorrectly listed. Levi doesn’t seem to fit the membership criteria and he made no attempt at following the instructions, so he shouldn’t have been editing the page in the first place. Aichon 15:11, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

Levi can have his name removed when he starts being a better person. Thanks everyone -- SomethingSomething.gif 16:25, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
