I wonder what made you think that.

Anyway, here's what I usually do whenever I see an entry of an edit in the wiki activity page.


 * check who made the edit and if the edit was made by an anon or a newcomer then I go to that page and check it's edit history.
 * In the edit history, if I find out that the anon has messed up the page (removed something, added something unnecessary etc), then I try to find out if he did it intentionally or accidentally.
 * And to find that out I check his contributions, wait for him to make another edit. After I find out his intentions, I take further steps.
 * If the anon did it accidentally then I fix the page and try to help him out but if I find out that the anon messed up the page intentionally then I request admins to take proper action against him. I also provide a link to the contributions page of that anon in my message so the admins can decide if taking a strict action is necessary or not.

Here is the block/ban log of our wiki. Some of these blocked people were blocked on my request. If you check their contributions, you'll notice that they have one thing in common. They all intentionally tried to vandalize pages on our wiki.
