Title: Encyclopedias getting ruined
Post by: bandit957 on December 08, 2020, 10:53:44 PM
Anyone remember when whole sets of encyclopedias used to get ruined because someone lost or destroyed one volume? This used to happen at school every now and then. Usually someone would steal one volume. I remember one time in high school, someone blew a bubble with bubble gum and closed an encyclopedia on it, which gunked the pages up.

Encyclopedias still get ruined all the time, but fortunately, Wikipedia is easily reverted.

Yep, I recently reverted some vandalism I found. Too bad since I don't have an account I couldn't strike the vandal IP.

Man, they let autoconfirmed users hit the vandals now? I'm an admin and they make us keep our hands to ourselves.
