Be more careful
editMy edit was not vandalism. My edit did re-format someone else's vandalism on a talk page, but that was to distinguish it from my own heading on a talk page. This opinion is shared by the owner of the talk page, as he left my edits in-tact (save for giving the other user his own heading). Please be more careful when issuing warnings. Also, please consider reverting my warning level, as an increase was not justified. 76.119.75.131 (talk) 09:55, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
By the way, what's up with whenever someone with admin-powers seeing an edit made by an IP user, they assume it must be vandalism? I thought Wiki admins were supposed to be welcoming? 76.119.75.131 (talk) 09:58, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi,
I'm not an admin, I just don't like people that think it's funny or fun or good to add dis(mis)information to one of the top websites on the planet, get away with it. Now I'm not saying you did that, but lots of people do, and it happens. Now sometimes those of us that try to help out with this make a mistake or the software bugs out or something that really really looks like vandalism isn't. So, sorry if you're offended I know I wasn't when I got reverted by the same person... Crazynas t 10:25, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. Not offended at all, just with the bump in warning level, it kind of makes things tough for me around here now. 76.119.75.131 (talk) 10:32, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
- As the only reasonable mod I've run into around here today - Why are mods here so eager to increase people's warning level without due diligence into the situation? 76.119.75.131 (talk) 10:46, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
- It has to do with huggle I think, and the fact that it's considered impolite to revert someone without letting them know. Think of it this way, would you rather I didn't tell you that I reverted something you did, 20 seconds after you did it. Warnings are also it is true a way to gauge weather and editor has been a useful contributor to the project, but it's really about the edits you make to project space. Follow the five pillars and you'll be fine. But why not register? It's simple free and anonymous and I wouldn't know what US state you're in right now. Also I'm not a mod, or anything like that, just another editor that's been around for a bit. Crazynas t

To answer your question...
editHi there. I watchlist Template:Vandalism information, so I just happened to see this edit summary. To answer your question, it's because it's based off the DEFCON levels. The system was originally known as "WikiDefcon", actually. Anyway...there you have it. :p Regards, Swarm 12:15, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
Indeed, I remember the def-con system. My question was more in relation to the template design.I just went back and looked, must have been more tired then I thought when I changed it last night... for some reason I had it in my head that you put in a '2' to make it 'defcon 4'(although I changed the template appropriately).
