-I created a seperate article for a MINOR controversy which hasn't been reported on since the killer was convicted almost two years ago. I think you need to read the vandalism policy before you attempt to claim someone is committing vandalism again. Particularly, what vandalism is: "Vandalism is any addition, removal, or change of content made in a <i>delberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia</i>. It is clear you didn't actually review my edits, otherwise you would have seen that I moved the information to its own article. It wasn't randomly deleted. It is simply such a MINOR issue it does not need a half-dozen paragraphs on the university page. In the future, please do not place warnings on people's pages regarding edits without actually reviewing what they did. Thank you.

-:This all would have been perfectly clear if you had used an edit summary, or the talk page. How is anyone supposed to know that you created a new article while looking at a diff with no summary, and a talk page with nothing addressing the split? As is, I thought you were just blanking the section, which would neatly fit the definition of vandalism. I'll admit that I didn't scour your contribs if you'll admit that an edit summary would have helped.

-::You mean an edit summary such as "created new page?" Maybe you should look at the edits again, as I said that in the first of my edit. So you are aware, all I am saying is you should take a good look at a person's edits before you <i>assume</i> they are vandalising anything. Thank you for removing the warning from my page.

-:::Try to see it from my side. An edit summary of "Created new page." for an edit that is only deletions smacks of vandalism (and trying to hide it on the recent changes page). Maybe you could have said "Information moved to [[Laura Dickinson murder]]." or something to that effect. All I'm saying is that there was not much summary in your edit summary, and it looked like vandalism to me. Regardless, I'm dropping the issue, as the point is moot and the misunderstanding is, in my eyes, cleared up. However, if you have anything else to add, feel free.

-::::Now the issue isn't a lack of using an edit summary but an edit summary which stated what I did but you missunderstood? Ok...whatever makes you feel better. Meanwhile, all I am saying is next time, spend more time before you define a post as vandalism. A simply look at my edit history would have cleared everything up, especially since I clearly stated "created new page" in my summary. It is never a good idea to assume everyone is vandalizing pages. But you took it a step further. Even after I pointed out--in my edit summary for my reversion--that you didn't actually look at my edit and questioned the assertion of vandalism, you still reverted my edit as vandalism. Didn't you think at least at that point to take the 30 seconds to check? To me it seems that to an dilligent and intelligent poster acting in good faith that that would be the first thought that would cross the poster's mind. Didn't this cross your mind? Or do you always make edits under the assumption that the edit summary is simply an attempt to cover vandalism even when a person has question your argument and basis? Additionally, my summary was sufficient for at least one other poster to understand what I did.  So I honestly don't see your rationalization as rationale. If I were you, I would simply appologize instead of making excuses. However, the overall issue is a non-issue (This is the first thing you have stated that I agree with). Lets move on.

-hi, i noticed that you gave an ip a final warning for vandalism.  please note this:  http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Riverwood_High_School&diff=prev&oldid=329721361 where the word "penis" was spelled out by this person who is obviously a high school student.

-::if youre not an admin then why are you giving "final warning"s?  [[User:Brendan19|Brendan19]] ([[User talk:Brendan19|talk]]) 22:28, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
-:::Because anyone can revert vandalism and warn vandals. see WP:VAND[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VAND#How_to_respond_to_vandalism]. You'll notice that the IP you were worried about has been blocked.
