Officer Kaoko Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 I had noticed that an anonymous with an IP Adress of 98.210.116.6 has violated the wiki. Two damage so far... Messed up the layout of the main page. Erased the content of Detective Conan page. And replaced it with a filthy word. I had undoed all of his actions and returned them to its original.
CarpetCrawler Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Maurice banned the user. I don't agree with disabling anonymous registration, because there are people to come in just to fix one thing and then leave. No one's going to register to fix one piece of information.
Officer Kaoko Posted March 23, 2011 Author Report Posted March 23, 2011 I take back what I said. I just feared that this will happen again...

Unfortunately, this isn't the first time, and certainly won't be the last. Not much we can do about it though, other than make sure to ban the user and revert the vandalism.

Let's go to their homes and blow a hammer down their heads. It is all what I can offer you ~
tengaku squared Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 My idea of making Little Mo a reality may help.
kaRAN Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 i think we should make registration compulsory to edit the wiki page some restrictions should be made or privacy should be there u can't just let any1 edit ur page or let him destroy it
Chekhov MacGuffin Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 i think we should make registration compulsory to edit the wiki page some restrictions should be made or privacy should be there u can't just let any1 edit ur page or let him destroy it It's easy enough to revert, watch pages, and you can block the troublemakers. I am strongly against compulsory registration because most IPs who edit the DCwiki are making constructive, useful edits. I think we would be losing too many good editors to lack of motivation to sign up to stop a few vandals.
kaRAN Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 then why not preserve these page or information if any1 edits the page then we ban him and directly paste the copy we preserved
Chekhov MacGuffin Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 then why not preserve these page or information if any1 edits the page then we ban him and directly paste the copy we preserved All prior versions of pages are saved under the history tab so it's easy change a page back to the way it was before. You switch back to an earlier version by clicking the desired past version of the page under history, clicking the edit tab, ignoring the warning about editing an old version, and saving the page. Then you leave a friendly note for Maurice telling him the vandal needs to have his feet encased in e-concrete and tossed into a virtual river.
kaRAN Posted March 25, 2011 Report Posted March 25, 2011 i was unaware of that thing well thats a good measure taken by everyone or only the mods
Chekhov MacGuffin Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 i was unaware of that thing well thats a good measure taken by everyone or only the mods Anyone can revert. I am a normal user on the wiki btw.
Cheesus Posted March 31, 2011 Report Posted March 31, 2011 The fact that all the violence is directed to what i did, means something?
tengaku squared Posted March 31, 2011 Report Posted March 31, 2011 The fact that all the violence is directed to what i did, means something? I personally doubt it means something. It was a vandal that was like "Hey, a wiki I never seen! Vandalize...". In other words, it was a random attack.
IdentityUnknown Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 Maurice banned the user. I don't agree with disabling anonymous registration, because there are people to come in just to fix one thing and then leave. No one's going to register to fix one piece of information. I agree that we shouldn't disable anonymous registration. Before I made this account, I edited something in the wiki that has yet to be deleted or corrected, so I'm assuming it was good information. I found it somewhat unbelievable that somebody forgot to include the Desperate Revival when they were writing about the times Ran got suspicious of Conan. Unfortunately, this isn't the first time, and certainly won't be the last. Not much we can do about it though, other than make sure to ban the user and revert the vandalism. Yeah, unfortunately it won't be the last. *sigh* My idea of making Little Mo a reality may help. ...™ I have no idea what you're talking about.

I think we would be losing too many good editors to lack of motivation to sign up to stop a few vandals. Agreed. See comment above. I personally doubt it means something. It was a vandal that was like "Hey, a wiki I never seen! Vandalize...". In other words, it was a random attack. That's sad...who goes around randomly vandalizing wikis? *ignores guy in class who once did so to the main Wikipedia site*
