Title: User deletes '+' in articles...
Post by: Octoate on 06:29, 11 April 07
Hi,
a user, who used the following IP addresses

200.238.102.162
200.238.102.170

removes all '+' in the articles he edits (also in discussions) and sometimes removes big parts of the article. Please block the IP Address and maybe the address range for that and of course have a closer look at the "Recent changes" list.

This time another IP did this again with the "Locomotive BASIC" article and removed about 24000 lines from the article. Kanga was online and blocked the IP address (222.191.251.51).
We should really think about preventing anonymous users to edit articles in the wiki.

I think blocking editing by anonymous users is a good starting point.

Are there people really so bored for them to make such stupidities?

Hello people,

Let me start from apologising for not taking care of things immediately lately, as I've changed jobs and it's kind of a busy (but exciting! I'm managing Heineken now!) period these days...

If problems continue I will look into it once again and block anon users indeed... what stupidities!!!
