Image transcription: A screenshot of a Tumblr post by smol-blue-bird. The post reads: “sometimes when I’m bored, I go through the list of recent bad faith Wikipedia edits that have since been reverted. a lot of them are politically contentious/offensive topics that attract crazies and trolls in general but sometimes there are completely innocent inoffensive articles that people attack for no reason. some guy yesterday vandalized the article on the chemical element francium”. Below is an attached screenshot showing the markdown of the article, reading “Francium is a stupid element”. End transcription.
Well I mean it is.
after looking up some qualities of francium, i am inclined to agree with the vandal. Francium might be very bright, but it’s not very bright, if you get me.
it is really funny when I’m browsing some wikipedia page and I see those types of vandalism (referring to the shitpost ones)
I chalk those up to nerdy kids attempting youthful mischief.
