  • "All fixed up!" is a very common edit summary from this user. Edit summaries often contain exclamation marks.
  • Information added by this user, especially with regards to Planet Zoo, will often be sourced from unreliable sources such as Fandom, Youtube, Deviantart etc.
  • Usernames can be lengthy and have some combination of "Willard", "Tommy", "Boggs", "George" and the names of various animals.
  • Vandalizes the talk pages of the reverting editors with accusations of sock puppetry.
