Discussion found at [[Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2015 November 20#Template:Talk-vandal1]]. - [[User:Sam Sailor|Sam Sailor]] [[User talk:Sam Sailor|<sup>''Talk!''</sup>]] 22:41, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
== Clarification on skipping levels ==
The page states "In cases of gross, extreme, or numerous vandalism it may be appropriate to use the Level 4im warning. Alternatively, in cases of obvious bad faith vandalism, it may be appropriate to use a level 3 warning in the first instance." What does "obvious bad faith vandalism" mean? It links to the joke page "assume bad faith". If that instruction is itself meant to be a joke, then that's not clear and I don't think it's appropriate on this page.

:I think if someone's replacing good content with profanity, for instance, that constitutes "obvious bad faith vandalism". I agree that it seems questionable to link to a joke page in this instance. [[User:Doniago|DonIago]] ([[User talk:Doniago|talk]]) 13:46, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
::The link to the humor page should probably go as it si not really helpful. I can say that if I see soemone who, int heir first few edits, is attacking other users, adding profanity to articles, or other things that can ''only'' be malicious and not just someone trying to see if they really can edit this thing, I will go straight to an "only warning".
