 Please do not vandalize Wikipedia. Wikipedia is one of the most popular websites on the internet, attracting millions of users every day. It is an online encyclopedia that contains information on various topics ranging from science, history, politics, and culture. Wikipedia is known for its open-source model, which means that anyone can edit or contribute to the content on the website. While this model has its benefits, it also makes Wikipedia vulnerable to vandalism. Vandalism refers to the act of deliberately changing or destroying content on the website, which can be harmful to the integrity and accuracy of the information provided.
Vandalism on Wikipedia can take different forms. Some vandals change the content of a page to reflect their own opinions or biases, while others add irrelevant or nonsensical information to a page. Others may deliberately delete valuable information or add false facts to mislead readers. Regardless of the form it takes, vandalism can have serious consequences. One of the main reasons why you shouldn't vandalize Wikipedia is that it undermines the credibility of the website. Wikipedia is widely used as a source of information, and people rely on it for accuracy and reliability. If users discover that Wikipedia contains inaccurate or misleading information, they may lose trust in the website and its contributors. This can lead to a loss of credibility and a decrease in the number of users who rely on Wikipedia as a source of information. Another reason why you shouldn't vandalize Wikipedia is that it is against the website's policies. Wikipedia has strict guidelines for editing content, and vandalism is explicitly prohibited. Violating these policies can result in the user being banned from editing or even being blocked from the website entirely. This can have serious consequences for users who rely on Wikipedia as a source of information, as they may lose access to valuable resources. Vandalism on Wikipedia can also have legal consequences. In some cases, vandalism can be considered a criminal offense, and those who engage in it may face legal action. Additionally, Wikipedia has a team of moderators who actively monitor the website for vandalism and take action to remove or revert any changes that violate the website's policies. This can lead to wasted time and resources that could be better spent improving the quality and accuracy of the website's content. Example (talk) 00:00, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

Above is a fictitious example of a response that you should not use. That example shows Example warning Example2 about vandalizing Wikipedia. However, if your article got nominated for deletion, that would not be a good argument to use, as it violates WP:PA, WP:TPG and a handful of other guidelines.
