:::I agree with Alex here, letting readers potentially see a vandalized page is a much more pressing issue than a vandal getting into a revert war with users.

== Since IPs and non-autoconfirmed users can't edit this page... == | |||
So I had a private chat with an admin on Discord on how IPs/non-autoconfirmed users should notify the Wiki about any troublesome users, and we came to an agreement that the best way is for IPs/new users to ping an admin's talk page about the situation. | |||
However, IPs and non-autoconfirmed users are not allowed to edit this page (for reasons I am well aware of, but we should still not ignore the IPs that are trustworthy), yet it does not give out any sort of advice on what they should do, so there should at least be a paragraph of that sort. | |||
As I stated above, my suggestion is simply for an IP/new user to go to an admin's talk page, but I am curious if anyone else has better ideas.

People should simply be reporting this stuff to the discord most of the time to guarantee much faster responses, which has no restrictions for people to join. Accessing the #smashwiki channel on it requires the contributor role that you must have an autoconfirmed account to be given barring some exceptions, but that doesn't stop someone from reporting vandals in just the #general channel. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 18:24, August 23, 2022 (EDT) | |||
