They vandalise. They vandalise and we have to be merciful to those who vandalise.
Because there is good editing and vandalism and vandalism must be removed. Even in the face of armageddon I will not compromise on this.

bio and random stuff
A Chess playing student who likes canals
I also have an interest in alt med
I am an admin but that does not mean I am any more likely to be right in an edit disspute than you are it simply means that I have a few extra abilities that allow me to help with the running of wikipedia.
My actions as an admin (well most of them a few of the early ones wont be listed) may be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=&user=Geni&page=
The standard you can leave comments on my talk page follows:
You can leave comments on my talk page or indeed anyone's talk page however if you want me to respond it is probably better to use my talk page. Please don't spam it if you do I will react apertheticaly.
My contributions (such as they are) are probably licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License (with the exception of those which are not eligible for such a license).
One of my main aims on wikipedia is to make sure there is an article for every canal listed in the Canals of the United Kingdom article.
- I made my 1000th edit on 14 November 2004
- I made my 2000th edit at some point no idea when
- Same for 3000th perhaps I'll notice the 4000th
- Nope missed that as well
I have considered putting up one of those wikistress meters from time to time but I haven't got round to making one which allows for negative values.
other projects I work on
I've done some limited work on the the wikijunior (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Wikijunior) project over at wikibooks. I'm an admin on Wikispecies (http://species.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page).
geni's advice on how to win an edit war
Discuss every edit on a talk page. Do not react emotionally. Assume good faith (even when you are pretty sure that the other person is not acting that way). Never revert first. Don't make or respond to personal attacks. If the other person is trying to make things heated, try mediation. Following this lot can result in two outcomes: a. It ends up in Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee and your case is unassailable. b.your opponent adopts these tactics and you end up collaborating on the article.
