administrator intervention against vandalism thank you for your reports at wikipedia administrator intervention against vandalism i find that you are a reliable contributor and frequently make useful reports however you do sometimes seem a little too quick to jump straight to final warnings and aiv without milder warnings first it is certainly not necessary to always go through the whole sequence of level warning level level level but in almost all cases there should have been at least a couple of warnings and an immediate final warning to a new user without previous warnings should be reserved for extreme cases such as serious personal attacks one other point is that it is worth thinking whether vandalism is always the right label for example you warned and reported brendo for vandalism but to me his her editing looked more like experimenting than vandalism and a word of advice to experiment in the sandbox instead of an article may perhaps have been sufficient i certainly do not wish to put you off as you make very useful contributions to vandal fighting as i have already said however you may find it helpful to consider my suggestions
