This page exists to post alerts about any incidents of vandalism that are occurring, so that other users and administrators can more promptly respond to them. Wikiquote's definition of vandalism is the same as Wikipedia's and can be seen at Wikipedia:Vandalism.

Care should be taken before assuming an initial contribution is vandalism unless it's blatantly obvious the user knows what they're doing.

If the vandal is known to attack more then one language, or more then one Wikimedia wiki, it is recommended that a global (b)lock be requested on Steward requests/Global.

Based on this edit, it's clear that he's a puppet of this Fourlaxers fellow I've heard tell about, as well as his IP sock, who was blocked repeatedly for similar edits. I request action be taken against this sock and the IPs he uses. 140.228.24.32 01:09, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The Fourlaxers IP sock is back to making the same biased edits as he did before his previous block. One month of blocking isn't enough. It should be at least a year, especially since that is the primary IP address he uses when his user accounts are blocked (and very rarely uses others). And deny him any account creation. 100.8.243.246 01:25, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What is the problem with the edits themselves? E.g. [https://en.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?title=Beauty_and_the_Beast_(1991_film)&diff=prev&oldid=3644788
his]tcorrects a grammar error (re: "balance(s)"). —Justin (koavf)TCM 01:50, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is one of his biased edits, removing some lines just because he thinks they're childish (I can tell because Fourlaxers made similar edits eight years ago) and never accepted he was wrong. Minor edits are one thing, but that does not erase eight years worth of damage from the record. 100.8.243.246 03:32, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
And now we have another sockpuppet:
Both of these IPs made this same edit, inexplicably removing quotes that do not violate the rule of two per 30-minute episode. Most likely because of Schemer's line: "Fruit cakes, made by my mommy, five cents apiece." All because he thinks the whole quote is childish. Bias is not to be tolerated here. These IPs need to be severely punished. 100.8.243.246 03:41, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
