What do you expect to get from Advocacy?
- Answer:What to do/Who I should talk to or help discussing the matter with the individual who is making a number of changes to certain pages inappropriately
Summary:
[edit]I believe an individual who is sometimes logged in as Theradioguy but usually on IPs 88.108.*.* continues to change gender references on articles including phat pants inappropriately. Any references to girls will be changed to "someone", any nonspecific reference such as rave or raver will be changed to male rave or male. Other articles they continue to make the same changes to include hoodies, baggy jeans, baseball cap, sagging (fashion), and others. External links that have been added to phat pants as proof that guys and girls wear phat pants have been either deleted entirely or had just the word girls removed. Links to other articles on these pages get the same treatment. They have also been editing questionably on articles such as rape, violence against women, brassiere, etc. The edits they make are usually full of spelling and punctuation mistakes and other typos, often quite a few in a row. The edit summaries they list are often different from the changes they have actually made.
