I propose adding the following quote by Colin Lane to the article (in the same format as Wikipedia:Sarcasm is really helpful): "If all the village idiots... left their villages... and formed their own village... OF IDIOTS... in that village... YOU would be the village idiot." A ecis Brievenbus 13:50, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
Must have been something in the water yesterday as we had what I'm guessing is a record seven admins blocked for April foolishness involving MediaWiki space. See this AN/I thread. Perhaps a single collective entry for this event? Ronnotel ( talk) 15:16, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
I'd just like to add a nomination of my own. I'll contact Tedder if others agree with this. I want to nominate Tedder for accidentally blocking ClueBot, twice. Looneyman ( talk) 14:44, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
Some day, when this all blows over, the Arbcom mail issue with both the election preparation on an official mailing list and the disclosure of contents from that private list should probably be added. If nothing else, it may serve as a cautionary tale to those who may follow behind us. If only it had an amusing component to it. -- No unique names 05:19, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
I made a userbox for users who are worthy of the wiki-break template, but prefer userboxes. Here it is:
Code | Result | |

Nominating JJPMaster for the stocks for moving the AfC sandbox to the User:JJPMaster/Another very useless test page whilst testing the AfC reviewer script to see if it would accept the sandbox, per The Bushranger's idea. See [1]. Anyone here? Pahunkat ( talk) 21:52, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
harej: I'll give you the actual edit summaries. Here they are. viewers:ok. To the stocks! (consensus achieved) Yay! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nononsense101 ( talk • contribs) 22:54, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
@ The Bushranger: let's discuss what the award Dan100 got should be. If we keep reverting, it might turn into an edit war. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nononsense101 ( talk • contribs) 22:08, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
Reading
WP:CON, what do you think? Might I specifically point out the line Consensus can be assumed if no editors object to a change
, while also noting that at least three editors object to your changing the title of this 'award'. Seeing as this is your second time trying to change it and your second time being reverted, I suggest discussing any possible changes here on this page before you try to implement them.

While looking at Drmies' block log, Vaticidalprophet noticed that Acroterion inadvertendly blocked Drmies instead of an account impersonating them. Stocks worthy? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Berrely ( talk • contribs) 12:42, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
I request for all Wikipedia Admins to be put in the stocks. Wikitrumpets ( talk) 02:14, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
As long as we have stocks, why not also have bonds? They would involve tying the victim up, or tying them to something. -- Thnidu ( talk) 04:48, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
Greetings. I wish to be put in the stocks early, so I will already have my time served. MarshallKe ( talk) 02:48, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
I’m condemning myself to the stocks because I clicked massRollback on about 100 pages, unwittingly restoring vandalism. — 3PPYB6 — TALK — CONTRIBS — 14:56, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
for editing multiple subpages of WP:Vital articles to use Trebuchet MS, resulting in Cewbot malfunctioning and demoting 6000 vital articles. Cewbot was then indeffed, unblocked, indeffed again, unblocked again, and finally indeffed for a third time. K6ka then reverted Cewbot's bad edits (with some assistance from Tamzin and I), resulting in K6ka reaching 100 kiloedits. – dudhhr talk contribs (he/they) 18:30, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

I compiled a table of all the entries listed on this page in my sandbox, including dates derived from this page and other on-wiki information, where I noticed that this this list is skewed towards pre-2012 (which makes sense as Wikipedia was more active then), and there is a large gap between 2017 and 2022, unless I may have miscopied some dates. Are there any other times from several years ago where users accidentally messed up Wikipedia that have not been listed or brought up on this talk page that could go here (depending on whether users who did would like them on this page or not), including during that gap?
Plus, are there also any other major accidents that occurred outside of enwiki (considering one from Commons has an entry here) that could be put here as well? Xeroctic ( talk) 20:56, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
Unless someone is making a joke too subtle for my somewhat literalist brain, "blatant disregard of sensibility" is using the wrong noun for the disregarded quality. What is surely meant is "blatant disregard of good sense", or the somewhat clumsy "blatant disregard of sensibleness". "Sensibility" refers to the capacity or character of senses and is approximately a synonym of "sensitivity". Pincrete ( talk) 08:54, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
