New site member Purpleious-Avatar (account age 140 days, site membership 137 days) has been spamposting a fair bit of bad feedback in the draft forums:

This is just… I like it. Simple and a nice read. Wouldn't change a thing. Is it supposed to be a tale? +4

Really nice, but the description could be longer and a few parts in the notes feel a bit contrived. Keep at it.

This is very creepy because my younger brothers came up with almost the same exact idea and have tried to get me to write it. Anyways, interesting article and very nice. My problems:

• Gets a bit boring in places. Others are too rushed.
• The "ambassador" reveals way too much information
• Foundation seems incompetent
• Description is rushed and short,

I've started receiving complaints about them. They have many other posts that are just short bullet-point lists of minutiae edits, as well as feedback on drafts that did not receive greenlights.

PM has been sent to them about the above issues. Ceast-and-desist on next infraction, then we move to revoke.

This user also added the Wikiwalk footer to a large number of Series V articles¹, but did so incorrectly in several cases (not having the necessary [[footnoteblock]] to place the footer below the footnotes). Wikiwalk has not been adding the footer to articles yet, and in the past we have used a bot to add the footer automatically — adding the footer manually may potentially cause problems in the future.

In any case, staff action is necessary to fix the missing [[footnoteblock]]s. I have sent the following warning to the user:

Hello,

You recently added the Wikiwalk footer to a large number of pages in Series V. However, you did not do so correctly, missing the necessary [[footnoteblock]] that correctly positions the footer. Additionally, the Wikiwalk team is waiting for Series V to fill before we plan to add the footer to articles. While your enthusiasm is appreciated, please do not add the Wikiwalk footer to any more articles.

EDIT: After reviewing all pages that the user editing during this editing spree, only the following required fixing, although around fifty needed verification they were correctly edited.

They recently made an edit to the SCP Series 2 - Tales Edition in which they moved the tale "First Quarto" one slot lower to be behind the tale "Mothers Day"¹

I reverted.
