Utente:Vituzzu/BRI
Un modo frequente di gestire il vandalismo su Wikipedia è annullare, bloccare e ignorare. Il metodo consta di tre passi:
- Annullare annullare il vandalismo sulla pagina, così che essa torni al suo stato pre-vandalismo.
- Bloccare l'utente che ha fatto il vandalismo senza commentare (o, se non lo sei, chiedi a un [[WP:A|amministratore di farlo).
- Ignora il vandalo.
Ciò evita che il vandalo si senta oggetto di attenzione e si senta per questo "efficace" nel danneggiare Wikipedia. Così facendo i vandali di lungo corso si annoieranno, rendendosi conto dell'inutilità della loro "opera" che viene silenziosamente e regolarmente resa vana.
There is a constant temptation for Wikipedians to play cops and robbers with vandals. Countering vandalism becomes a form of law enforcement. It should be remembered that most vandals are bored individuals with nothing more interesting to do. The best way to dissuade them from vandalising is to convince them that vandalising is boring and has no impact on the community or the encyclopedia. Boredom is Wikipedia's secret weapon. This is done by swift applications of RBI. "Law enforcement" and vandal paranoia themes are thus counterproductive, since they invite the vandal to see himself as a nemesis pitted against Wikipedia. The role-playing game may be enjoyed by the vandal and some Wikipedians alike – but the net effect is to undermine the boredom that will eventually drive the vandal away.
Remember, though, that vandalism is the deliberate attempt to disrupt Wikipedia. Any edit, even if completely against consensus, tendentious and unhelpful, but done because an editor genuinely wanted to improve the project from their point of view, should not involve RBI. In those cases, we want to tell the editor involved why their edits are problematic, because we hope they can improve. Be sure you are facing genuine vandalism, but when you are sure, revert, block and ignore in the knowledge you are helping Wikipedia.
A variation of this method, BRI (block, revert, ignore), should be employed against edit-warring vandals.
