Reverting vandalism

edit

If you are interesting in finding and reverting vandalism, the first place to start is reading Wikipedia:Vandalism. However, that is pretty dense reading. You might try reading Wikipedia:Cleaning up vandalism and User:Arnon Chaffin/Anti-Vandalism Center which is a little less dense. The easiest tool to use is the Recent changes link that shows a running list of all edits on Wikipedia. Since you are new, I would recommend just watching the recent changes and seeing how other editors deal with vandalism. Once you watch for awhile, you will see the patterns and how it is usually handled. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 03:22, 5 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thank you!

edit

Thank you for your enthusiasm in helping to remove vandalism. You can also do some minor editing that you see in the articles that interest you. If you see a sentence that could be edited to clarify content, then please feel free to do so. I am considering working on this article: The Scream and improve it to the point of being a "Good Article". A Good article means that it is considered one of Wikipedia's high quality article. If you are an art professor, this may be right up your alley. Please let me know if this is something that interests you. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page.
