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.

For uploading the pornographic image File:2cola100.jpeg. As not all the sysops have actually seen it, I only expect those who did to rule accordingly. It may have already been deleted but Nallan's intentions were clear and he should be warned as such. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 15:12, 4 September 2009 (BST)
- I think it would be a better idea to upload a copy to give those sysops who haven't seen it an opportunity to make up their own minds on it, rather than having to just take it on faith. =/ We've had these "pr0n images" discussions before and most of the time they usually are judged not to be. -- Cheese 15:17, 4 September 2009 (BST)

Uploading a heavily racist image as a vehicle for the rules of posting on his talk page. Cyberbob Talk 09:47, 4 September 2009 (BST)
- and you want to make a case against Jed using Administration as a medium for continuing a personal vendetta? You've sure been on your game this week. As far as this issue goes, it is my talk page and I can have what I want there, you don't know shit about my heritage or my situation so maybe you should have considered using more passive means of finding a solution to this if it so verily offended you, rather than bringing it here to only publicize this "heavily racist" image and fuel a personal battle. I won't be replying as not much needs to be said now, my talk page, my rules, if you have a problem with the image or its conents, there are/were plenty of other ways for you to deal with it without bringing it to this public forum.--CyberRead240 09:53, 4 September 2009 (BST)
Now I know why he wanted that warning struck... Vandalism, because of TOU's racism clause, jed's past racism-related escalations as precedence, etc. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 13:34, 4 September 2009 (BST)

editing my groups subpage without permission --xoxo 09:05, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- I am removing myself from the "fanclub" listing, on which I was placed along with a rather insulting note - all without my permission. This has been fought out before many times over on A/VB and A/A; you cannot list someone as a member of something they do not want to be a part of. I am taking this to Arbitration. Cyberbob Talk 09:06, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- well you did misspell babi--CyberRead240 14:56, 3 September 2009 (BST)es as babbies on IRC so while insulting, it is the truth.--xoxo 09:08, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- on a serious note i understand if you don't want to be on there but you could have contacted me via my talk or arbitration rather than lauching straight at a group page, you should know better bob yet time and time again you demonstrate you don't.--xoxo 09:10, 3 September 2009 (BST)
Not Vandalism - This has always been a case for A/A. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 09:16, 3 September 2009 (BST) - self-struck. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 09:28, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- Involved party, invalid vote and please learn to spell vandalism before you rule next time thanks.--xoxo 09:18, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- actually that shouldn't even be there yet.--xoxo 09:19, 3 September 2009 (BST)
Hmmm, fan club listing page that he didn't add himself to in the first place? A page that really isn't about anything in-game? And the actual name links to his user page? This edit is Not Vandalism, but this sort of issue should go to A/A to make sure there is a clear decision on whether or not people can be added to non-game related lists (and I am thinking about the Wiki Puritan list also here) that they do not want to be on. Not to mention, people should have the right to remove themselves from "fan lists" should they no longer be a fan. If it was reversed and 2 Cool removed him there wouldn't even be a case, now would there? You can't have it both ways. If this was something in-game (example kills) then the page should be protected until the issue is resolved. This is purely wiki and there is no bad faith in this edit.--– Nubis NWO 13:42, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- hang on, while the rest of your post is jibba jabba, I don't get why the point "if 2 cool removed him there wouldn't even be a case" is even a valid point....why would they remove him if they put him there.......--CyberRead240 14:37, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- Think he meant hypothetically if I put myself there and 2 Cool removed me, there wouldn't be a case. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 14:41, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- Don't doubt 2 Cool. I reckon you could edit that page with a blank space and be VBd--CyberRead240 14:42, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- I'm sure you'll succeed with one of your strawmen sooner or later. Better spam them all over the place to increase your chances. Cyberbob Talk 14:47, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- Don't think this is relevant to my post.--CyberRead240 14:56, 3 September 2009 (BST)
- Speaking of which, Bob, wassuup? I don't get you. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 14:57, 3 September 2009 (BST)
