abstract
| - Vandalism is any addition, removal, or change of content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of BaseballWiki. The most common types of vandalism include the addition of obscenities or crude humor, page blanking, or the insertion of nonsense into articles. Any good-faith effort to improve the BaseballWiki, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism. Even harmful edits that are not explicitly made in bad faith are not considered vandalism. For example, adding a personal opinion to an article once is not vandalism — it's just not helpful, and should be removed or restated. Not all vandalism is obvious, nor are all massive or controversial changes vandalism. Careful attention needs to be given to whether changes made are beneficial, detrimental but well intended, or outright vandalism. Committing vandalism violates BaseballWiki policy. If you find that another user has vandalized BaseballWiki, you should revert the changes and warn the user (see below for specific instructions). Users who vandalize BaseballWiki repeatedly, despite warnings to stop, should be reported, and administrators may block them. Note that warning is not an absolute prerequisite for blocking; accounts whose main or only use is obvious vandalism or other forbidden activity may be blocked without warning.
