Wiki Vandalism Reports

I haven't been very concerned with the Bendy pages since I revamped them back in February, but these do seem like a worrying amount of changes. I have noticed some of these edits, but the ones I saw were usually as simple as typo fixes or rewording certain segments.

Some of these changes DO have accepted CRTs behind them, but others do not. It seems like Harry DID do a CRT and some of it was accepted, but other edits were snuck in despite them not being approved in the CRT.

As for the most heavily altered page, Bendy, I could suggest rolling it back to this edit, which is the latest version of the profile that I can vouch for as this is the end of my revamp I did in February 2023, all of which was handled in this CRT. This specific edit was not done by me, but it is adding things from an accepted CRT. From there, we could apply all relevant and accepted changes, perhaps in a thread dedicated to cleaning up the verse.
 
My dude standard operating procedure for no-CRT edits is to roll them back and to smack the one that did them. unless of course they happen to be staff then it's fine, right?

Roll the ***** back, it really isn't hard.
 
Sammy's profile before vandalism

Henry's profile is actually fine besides the 9-A statistics possibly not being accepted? I cannot find where it was accepted, but I seem to remember that happening.

I think the issue here is that there are a ton of non-CRT edits mixed in with the CRT edits. It'll require a little more work than just rolling everything back

they can apsolutely just redo the CRTs if it's a problem, seeing as ol' Harry is the one doing it, he can handle getting his shit reaccepted.

Hmm. Should we delete the entire "Bendy and the Inkmachine" verse then? 🙏

We ought to decide upon what to do regarding Harry, and contact supporters. At least some of this is legitimate, so I dislike the idea of just deleting it when there are as many supporters as there are.

It may be acceptable to leave Bendy's profile as it is (once reverted to ShockingPsychic's edit, of course) and then delete other, less central pages, and allow them to be remade by the verse supporters.

I don't know what the implication here is but it isn't appreciated, least of all on a management thread. If a staff member is sneaking in edits somewhere, go talk to HR, I don't care. Don't comment again.

Most of the profiles are centralized in some way, everyone in the other Antagonists can probably be deleted, but everything else is on the important side

This would refer to Alice Angel and Wilson.

Alice Angel seems to have had minimal changes by Harry:

For Alice, he appears to have changed an Immortality type from 3 to 4, and changed "High" stamina to "Superhuman". Very easy to undo overall.

Wilson has much more editing on Harry's part overall, which will need some discussion on what comes from which CRT. He added a Caricature key with just Immortality, he significantly changed the Immortality of the Shipahoy Dudley key, added Information Manipulation (Type 2), added a dizzying amount of changes here, and early into the page's history seems to have changed his Inorganic Physiology (a minor concern, that one).

There's also some weirdness to Wilson's tier, between phrasing changes and a refusal to adhere to the tier template format- it went back and forth between having that properly to not. I don't know what's going on with that.

I am curious to know how much of the content of the page is widely agreed upon stuff- previously, Harry came into conflict simply for not adhering to the rules, refusing to follow procedure of getting things accepted. His additions were not malicious, he was just overwhelmingly stubborn and impatient. I would want a greater deal of leniency if this is a matter of things that are probably right, but Harry pushed out without backing it up, compared to someone sneaking in blatantly overestimated abilities by adding them without a CRT.

I think the reason Alice escaped much of the problems was because she herself is not a hax character, plus I'd probably list her as peak human Stamina personally, the woman doesn't have many feats.

Okay yeah, definitely delete Wilson, that kind of hax needs to be accepted in a CRT with at least 3 mods weighing in on the matter

I can't even see Plot Manipulation being cosher, multiple things happen far out of Wilson's control.

Likely not much, outside of Wilson's fuckery I'd probably agree with much of it, but Wilson's changes are the damn problem here.

Wilsons changes also affect Bendy. He has MANY STRONG resistances that are purely vandalism
Click to expand...
Those can be just edited out, but Wilson's profile relies upon his hax for the most part, it'd be easier to flat out delete him and do an overview of his crap and remake him in a CRT then just to change him

His entire profile needs an overhaul, and as with FNaF's stuff, I am too conservative to do it and will only do it if I get tired of the profiles being shit
 
I also think that the Bendy verse supporters should create a new CRT together that aims to undo all of the vandalism in our wiki pages for this verse. 🙏

Also, DaReaperMan, stop making unhelpful and subversive posts here.

And for how long should we ban Harry?
 
Knowing Harry was just being impatient, one month to three months should suffice, as well as an in-depth reason as to why he's being banned.
 
I'm not sure what you're asking. I think you might be asking if you could make a CRT about what you added without a CRT, when your ban expires- in which case, yeah, we won't issue a ban on that sort of thing unless it becomes clear that this is where the problem lay.

In any case. A ban has been generally agreed upon, the duration is what is up to question. Because we're looking at a fairly short one, I'd like to get it out of the way. Non-evaluating staff have proposed anywhere from a week to three months- I think three months is a bit high, but feel a week is light. I'm going with 1 month, as this is fairly standard for a "short ban".
 
Okay. I would very much appreciate if somebody else handles it then. 🙏
 
Thank you very much for helping out. 🙏🙂
 
Without saying what it is, the email is also a pretty damning piece of evidence. Banning.

We should discuss whether to increase the duration of Harry's ban, perhaps to years or permanent.
 
I don't know, the way he responded sounds kinda of pathetic. Plus he has gotten far too many warnings and started doing the stuff again despite us giving very clear instructions. And made a sock to immediately get around a ban; despite it being full common sense that sock puppetry is obviously something very ban worthy offense.
 
Should we really give him a permanent ban though? Wouldn't 6 months or so be sufficient?
 
Well, he only tried to help out by using it and going from 1 month to permanent seems too harsh. 🙏
 
I'd be satisfied with a year, sockpuppeting is a pretty major offense.

I'll begrudgingly accept 6 months if it comes down to that, though.
 
He is apologising and seems extremely distressed. 🙏

Honestly, does he recognize that he isn't permanently banned? Does he recognize that it is impossible to have a sane, rational conversation when he is threatening his life, as if it were a bargaining chip for re-entry, if we do not comply? That sucks, man. The short ban he received was already pretty light, and this makes it seem like he wants just... no ban, in spite of recognizing that he has done consistent wrong up to this point, intentionally. Which I just can't approve of.

I feel like if you guys didnt realise the Sock Puppet he would have continued there, which means he wanted to get out of this free punishment instead of apologising and taking the punishment

But I think it would be cool if we lowered his ban IF he helps the community rebuilding the profiles, also mostly 'cause I am scared he'll hurt himself
