User:Addict 2006/DefeatVandals
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Through random browsing (not the Random article thing), I end up clearing vandalism caused by "unknown" IP numbers and some names.

September
- Differences between book and film versions of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (huge title...) (September 2) - "Winky" was a failed attempt at a joke. Previously with diff=155260958 and oldid=155176389, the article does not exist anymore due to an AFD.
2008
January
- Cloverfield (January 17) - Just due to seeing commercials before Star Wars fan films, I began to get somewhat interested in this movie (but I won't watch it). Well, someone put a derogatory message.
- Image:Libertymendota.jpg (January 23) - Removed long-exposed vandalism (but forgot to log into Commons in the process)
June
- List of Lucky Star characters (June 10) - Removed a fancruft "someone <3 with multiple 3s someone" statement claiming to add ages of two adult characters which it didn't

And no one better take a version from the official movie site, because they're all deliberately and intentionally vandalized. Sure it's for a viral campaign but that detracts from quality here.
- Doctor Eggman in other media (September 5) - I understand the YouTube Poop (video remix) joke but this is a serious place.
