[edit] Vandalism

From my user page: Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Indian Creek School, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed.

Thank you.Bond Head 20:49, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

  • The History page clearly shows two vandal IPs causing the vandalism. The second IP caused by rollback to be blocked, leaving the majority of the swears in the next. Im not sure why you are warning me for it, as 209.60.233.98 is the active vandal, and 67.172.199.75 the blocking vandal. All my own edit did was removing the 209.60.233.98 vandalism, which left 67.172.199.75 vandalism in. --Excirial (Talk,Contribs) 05:54, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
  • OK. My mistake. When correcting vandalism, instead of deleting or changing inappropriate text, you may want to just roll the page back to the last good version. Best, Bond Head 13:30, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Actually, im using Lupins non administrator rollback to revert vandalism. An advantage of this is that it reverts each and every edit of the vandalising IP, up to the edit of a different user. Its a lot faster then manually searching the last good revision, but when two IPs vandalise with no good version in between, it leaves the vandalism of the previous IP in the text. Pretty rare though, but annoying when it happends :) --Excirial (Talk,Contribs) 17:12, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
