Re:Returning spammer/vandalism

Sadly, not a pratical way (that I know of). One could get a bot to run through all of the persons edits and undo it, but the only admins who have bots on this wiki (User:CzechOut and User:SOTO) don't tend to hang around tooo much these days (plus, I'm not sure the process would account for, say, you reverting a specific page but not others). All in all, I'd say (y)our best shot at diminishing the reverting task would be to reach out for the admin that has edited most recently to the time of the trouble.

Thanks for your concerns about this, all the admins appreciate users who look out for things like this. One request I have is that if/when you revert any edits, just do so quietly; in other words, don't get too specific in the edit summary ("reverting vandalism" is fine). These people want attention (one can only imagine what their real world lives must be like) and we don't want to give that to them. Thanks again! Shambala108 00:49, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
