Presented without comment, except to say that the PCHS-NJROTC character is hilarious, but a little too over-the-top to be believable. Which one of you guys is this?

This is edit-notice creep, as are already the Romeo editnotices. The impact on vandalism is nil and potentially inverse, while it confuses or scares away good-faith editors. Actually this is a good place to discuss on whether we should still use the romeo editnotices. Cenarium (talk) 02:44, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Great, next some twat will post a new policy, WP:EDIT NOTICE CREEP.

Cheerleader vandals. Haw haw haw. That's a rich one. rolleyes.gif

Go to PCHS's userpage. Look at the userboxes.
Just another teenaged asshole.

(That reminds me. If you ever want to see a whole bunch of WP freaks
throwing their weight around, the Wikipolitics blog is a real treat.
Recognize any of the names on the userlist?)

How about a warning to "Expert vandals"?
