Vandalism - Recent Changes Patrol

Thanks for the kudos. I am sorry to hear about teachers with a dismissive attitude toward Wikipedia. It does have shortcomings but it is still a work in progress and its content is entirely the work of volunteers. In some subject areas, some articles are yet to be written. Others were "starter" articles that no one has gotten around to filling out. Some content is erroneous but it is really a small percentage. Vandalism, unfortunately, is a problem. Some of the errors and problems - quite a few from my experience - are due to vandalism. Articles were correct when written but errors have been inserted. The most obvious vandalism is caught almost immediately by ClueBot and individuals who check recent changes. Unfortunately, even several individuals working at one time cannot read every edit. The worst vandalism is that which sounds plausible. If no one who looks at it is knowledgeable in the subject and no suspicion is raised, it might be awhile before it is caught. It just so happened that I was watching recent changes of IP users at the time and I tend to omit the biography articles so I happened to see those. I would not be too hard on a 12-year old who did not understand the seriousness of changing information that others would like to rely on. I think many of the errors come from those who are several years older, who really ought to know better. I hope you will contribute to wikipedia and that your son will decide to do so as well. If not now, in a few years he may have some areas of interest in which articles need to be written or revised. Donner60 (talk) 23:15, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation

I'd like to invite everyone to join the WikiProject R&B and Soul Music. We are currently on demand for new members, the project was dying, but with your help we can revive it and make it one of the best WikiProjects. Make me sure that you'll think about this and remember cooperative works can do amazing things. Regards Dfrr (talk) 07:47, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
