Forum:What do you hate the most that people do on the wiki

Out of things like petty vandalism, putting redundant info on articles, give frist person accounts on articles, re-adding an undo without reading why it was done, etc.

I'd have to say it's unsigned comments for me. MAY THE ANONOMOUS ROT IN HELL! -DragonJTSLeave me a message 18:19, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

I'm gouna say people who put things like "I once encountered.." This is a wiki people, not a forum. Whole point of a wiki is to explain something in a neutral point of view. I.e "There is no I or They.."

Also when people say they have encountered a bug, but don't state which system they encountered it on.ViperXeon 22:31, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Would definitely have to say the excessive use of first-person in the articles and spelling errors. I would have to say of all the other gaming wikis, Fallout wikia is by far one of the worst offenders for this. What's also annoying is when one person has written something, but immediately afterwards another person does something like "however...", and then the original author rebukes the previous comment with his own, and so on. Turns into a discussion page in the end. --MercZ 20:45, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Stuff like this: "I fond one in revet city". Fat Man Spoon 20:47, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Also people that think "glant penis" is hilarious. Fat Man Spoon 20:48, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm also adding on people who don't understand the word random encounter. "This person appears in a random encounter. visit the page to see a lsit of possible palces they can appear. Here is a list of palces they were seen: blah blah i cant read" -DragonJTSLeave me a message 21:04, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Also, "ZOMG REFERENCE" to something obviously wrong. (God, I hate so much.) Fat Man Spoon 21:08, 11 May 2009 (UTC)


 * For me, stuff like "This editor found" and the inability of people to put game names in italics. It may not sound like a big deal but once you've corrected both of these a few hundred times it gets to you a bit ;) -- Porter21 (talk) 09:50, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

One of my biggest pet peeves anywhere, not just the wiki, is misspelling, or incorrect grammar. I mean, if it's a typo it's okay, but when it's like an entire section that someone wrote up that is hard to understand without a lot of thinking just annoys me. I want to e-stomp these kinds of people. --RockandRhyme 22:34, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

I guess I can add the issue with people overusing the "notes" thing way too much. Hell, I'm not even sure if that's the correct thing to use in the first place. --MercZ 05:59, 14 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Unsigned comments and people writing in third person on main articles. --Sentinel 101 18:04, 16 May 2009 (UTC)


 * DragonJTS thinks you mean first person, byt he may be mistaken. as he stated, he definatly agrees with the unsigned comments one --DragonJTSLeave me a message 19:31, 17 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Re: Porter21: I think theres a bot removing game name italics now. --96.243.180.70 02:01, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Not sure what you're referring to - I had my bot add italics to game names last week and the only other bots here are either inactive (HeliumBot) or usually only add interwiki links (Agricola). If there's indeed a bot removing italics around game names, please let me know which one it is. -- Porter21 (talk) 10:03, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I think it's funny that I remembered that but didn't remember that it was PorterBot. --96.243.180.70 09:38, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
