From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Do you like
vandalizing ?
Do you think it is
funny ?
Or just want to make a joke/troll page?
Or maybe, you just want to
spam ?
Then go ahead,
write an article that will probably get
deleted , and classified as a speedy page.
The following are types of articles that often get speedy deletion. Just don't. Unless you really want to (read the next section for more info).
Nonsense:
A bunch of useless characters
Nonsensitive text and jokes
Anything else that is not useful in any way
Spam
Advertising
Self promotion of social media pages, websites, etc.
These are
A
speedy deletion template will be put on your article
It will (obviously) get deleted
Someone will leave you an
ugly and embarrassing message on your
User talk page
If you keep on vandalizing, more ugly and embarrassing messages will be left on your talk page
If you still keep vandalizing, you will be
blocked from creating pages and editing
If the block expires and you continue vandalizing, you will likely be permanently blocked and your IP will be blocked from creating new pages.
If you use
sockpuppet accounts to
evade your block, they will probably be blocked too
If you create speedy pages on other
Wikimedia projects , you will get
globally blocked as well.
If you have had all this on the list happen, enjoy your
permanent global ban .
So just don't create speedy pages.
But if you really have a temptation to, do it in the
Sandbox where no one really cares as it gets automatically reverted once in a while anyways.
