Topic on User talk:2hadow

We were conned - Miraheze confirmed that this user is a known crosswiki troublemaker. The account is now locked across the wiki farm and is permanently blocked here.

An hour ago I was happy to see someone volunteering to help with cleanup.

Unfortunately, I've just spent that hour cleaning up after you. And I have come to the conclusion that I need to give you a tempban for a day just to stop you long enough to discuss this with you.

First, we don't want or need those "References" headers. And unilaterally deciding to add them is a way to get permabanned -- for trying to change part of the wiki design and style without asking first.

Second, Laconic pages are supposed to be short. That's what "laconic" means. They do not get "stub" templates.

Third, you are not an admin -- you do not have the right to threaten other users with bans for their edits. Especially when their only edits are two removals of misapplied categories, which is not vandalism by any measure.

That alone right there -- I am sorely tempted to permaban you just for that. But I will not. I will give you a chance to prove that you are not a particularly clever vandal yourself. But you have done more in 20 hours to prejudice me against you than any of our other "problem children" have done in six months. When you come off your ban, rest assured I will be watching every character you type.

Please respond to this message and acknowledge that you understand,

I also see that you deleted a complete section on the page Minimonsters/Heartwarming, without leaving an explanation in the Edit Summary box.

While I'll grant that the outright removal of text makes it no longer grammatically incorrect, it's not the kind of action that benefits the wiki as a whole. If we wanted to make text grammatically correct by deleting it, we would have saved everybody a great deal of trouble and simply blanked every page on the wiki.

We do not need edits of that sort. If you see a need to delete substantial sections of a page, explain why in the Edit Summary.

I support the tempban that @Looney Toons imposed.

I also ask that you read All The Tropes:Style Guide.

I agree and I added the stophand!
