Wookieepedia:Vandalism in progress

The vandalism in progress page is a reporting function for Wookieepedians who notice acts of ongoing or repeated vandalism. For those familiar with Wikipedia, this page and the corresponding talk page will serve as a simplified version of the AIV page.

How to report:

 * For first-time vandals, consider putting one of the warning templates on the user's talk page before reporting them.
 * Please add vandal reports under the appropriate heading, "Current IP alerts" or "Current RU alerts," in the following format:


 * 1) Followed by a description of the act(s) of vandalism, and your signature (by typing ~).

 * 1) As silly as it is, this user has been edit-warring Ezra Bridger's hair color, despite a 3RR warning, a written request, and a vandalism warning. -  Cwedin (talk) 23:56, March 20, 2017 (UTC)
 * 2) *Technically speaking, he hasn't actually committed a 3RR violation since his edit-warring on this article began last month. A 3RR violation requires that someone performs more than three back-and-forth reversions in 24 hours or less. Either by tact or sheer luck, he's never actually done more than three within any 24-hour span, though you could certainly make the case that he's violating the spirit of the rule. I would be careful to chalk up his editing to vandalism, because he might actually believe what he's adding is correct and not understand that we go by what source material tells us. Remember, never attribute to bad faith what might just be sheer stupidity. This is what I would suggest: Take a moment to write him a personal message explaining why what he's adding is wrong and how and why he's committing violations of our policies. Then he has no excuse not to abide by them. If he continues at that point, I'll be happy to block him. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 00:08, March 21, 2017 (UTC)
 * 3) **Ah, you're right, I did jump on that 3RR too hastily. Guess it's time for me to re-read some policies! Anyway, I don't like calling these edits "vandalism" either, but through ignorance or disregard, this editor has continued despite warnings, and I did't know what else to call it (which is why I came here). Regardless, I'll take your advice and hope this clears up! - Cwedin (talk) 00:47, March 21, 2017 (UTC)
 * 4) ***Whelp... - Cwedin (talk) 00:33, March 28, 2017 (UTC)
 * 5) ****Blocked. Keep us informed if he returns after his block. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 00:45, March 28, 2017 (UTC)

 * User has been edit-warring details of Battle of Endor/Legends regarding the Force vision of Roan Shryne. He's saying that it is fanon. --Nostalgia of Iran (talk) 03:36, April 17, 2017 (UTC)
 * I have removed information which has no proof as per the attribution policy. You have insisted on adding unconfirmed speculative information back into the article.-- ID-21 Dolphin  DolphinJedi.png(Talk) 16:28, April 17, 2017 (UTC)
 * The same policy also allows for simple logical deductions to take place. --Nostalgia of Iran (talk) 16:30, April 17, 2017 (UTC)
