*"How to Vandalize Fandom more Efficiently (Tutorial)"* - Make sure to create no changes or (0) when you *purposely* Misedit - NEVER modify like thousand or more bytes difference - stealthly change the image like modified paper image and goes unnoticed by mere VSTF - Observe an VSTF daily life schedule - use VPN - Purposely type the vandalism change as "reverted" or "reverted for vandalism" to slightly decieve VSTF

[@Mizuryryn]

Pro tip: use secondary alt to upload a image material used for replacing image, so that VSTF wont revert every action and turn into vain

[@Mizuryryn]

Pro tip 2: don't use an ugly name, it'll be easily detected by VSTF

[@theapexsurvivor9538]

Protip: Use alts to make erroneous edits for you to """revert""" so that VSTF looking at your edits genuinely thinks you're helping. Egage in edit wars with your alt occasionally to completely destroy the page history (3 pages of just """reverting""" vandalism will make proper reversion a nightmare) Protip 2: Save all your edits to documents in advance so you can quickly copy-paste edits for a few dozen pages at a time, forcing VSTF to make quick (usually bad) judgements on what to fix Protip 3: Never close the fandom pages you're editing, thus minimising the traffic you're giving them.

No, subtle misinformation is one of the worst forms of vandalism. I'd rather people put donkeys on pages and links to the Weird Gloop Minecraft Wiki, even swear words, than subtle misinformation.

I wish to raise awareness of this workaround so that the link can be legitimately used in talk pages, user pages/profiles and the article Minecraft Wiki (website).

Fandom has engineers who work specifically to improve the site's SEO (Search Engine Optimization), i.e. chqnge aspects of the site to make Google's indexing bots think that the site is superior and should be placed higher in searches. They've even made it so anonymous users can't access certain pages on wikis, because those pages looked "bad" to the Google bots. So, Fandom truly does care more about pageviews than the usability of the site, if that wasn't obvious already.

"Incoming links" "SEO" Both of those answers ignore the reality. Fandom makes money via Google AdSense. Google prioritises websites with Google Ads on them.

[@The21stGamer]

Every fandom that has migrated their wiki to a non-Fandom service always has that one phase where everyone just turns the Fandom wiki into a vandalised hellhole. It's happened with Calamity Mod already, and the effects are in equal parts ridiculous and something that could actually be in the game.

[@Dreamheart101]

May I ask why people do it?

[@The21stGamer]

@@Dreamheart101 Probably because the old wiki is basically useless, so they just decide to have some fun with it. Also, they probably want to dissuade people from using Fandom so they make the old wiki look unappealing.

[@lpfan4491]

I think we will eventually see an influx of communities that don't do that because their fandom counterparts were essencially dead on arrival and too small and unorganized to even vandalize.(Like, the german Xenoblade fandom Wiki is sad. People are still actively editing for it, but barely any progress is being made and the frontpage looks like we were still in 2018. And it is actually one of the better looking ones of these "dead wikis", a lot have like 40 pages max.)

Donkey is a fictional character created by William Steig and adapted by DreamWorks Animation for the Shrek franchise. He is voiced primarily by Eddie Murphy. Donkey is an anthropomorphic donkey and his appearance is modeled after a miniature donkey named Perry.[1] He is depicted with grey fur, brown eyes, and a black mane. In the franchise, he is the sidekick and best friend of Shrek, husband to Dragon, and father to a litter of Dronkeys (Dragon-Donkeys). As the series' comic relief character, Donkey is well-regarded by critics for his wit, wisdom, and humor.
