Muppet Wiki:Blocking

Vandalism is any addition, deletion, or change to content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of the encyclopedia. The most common type of vandalism is the replacement of existing text with obscenities, page blanking, or the insertion of other wholly irrelevant content.

Any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism. Apparent bad-faith edits that do not make their bad-faith nature inarguably explicit are not considered vandalism at Wikipedia.

Committing vandalism is not a violation of Wikipedia policy; it needs to be spotted, and then dealt with – if you cannot deal with it yourself, you can seek help from others.

Dealing with vandalism
If you see vandalism (as defined below), revert it.

Additionally, leave warning messages on the vandal's talk pages using the following system. If the vandal has been properly warned yet continues, do not report them at Administrator intervention against vandalism. Admins can't block vandals as per the blocking policy.

Warning templates

If the vandal strikes again, list them at Administrator intervention against vandalism. The blocking admin leaves this on the vandal's talk page:



Remember to sign and timestamp your warnings by leaving four tildes (like this: ~ ).
