 | This page in a nutshell: Recognition is a motivation for vandalism. Trolls require food ? don't feed the trolls. |
True vandals and trolls (as distinguished from users who dabble in minor vandalism) are usually chronically online[1] and may suffer from real or perceived alienation[2] or powerlessness. They seek recognition and infamy by interrupting and frustrating the Wikipedia project and community. Such users experience exceptional attention as empowerment, reward, and encouragement. This is particularly true for those prolific vandals who have been immortalised on Wikipedia pages, meticulously catalogued by category pages, targeted by dedicated templates, and thereby have become a noted part of wiki culture.[a]
Encouragement
This glorification of vandalism through infamy encourages Internet memes through reinforcement, where users imitate notorious or unique vandalism methods for amusement, to share in the infamy, or for the thrill of defying authority and/or interfering in other users' work. Denying recognition and infamy neutralizes common primary motivators for vandalism and disruption. [3]
Media exposure of vandalism on Wikipedia seems to invite increased vandalism. When a person writes in a newspaper or says on television that it is easy to insert nonsense in Wikipedia, invariably a number of imitators want to see it for themselves and believe they are "hackers". Making this issue seem more important than it is reinforces this behavior (see positive feedback).
Continuing to deal with vandalism
Some material is still going to be valuable in dealing with vandalism, so this is not about pretending vandalism does not exist. Instead, information on vandalism should be critically appraised: first, whether it has genuine value; then, whether that value outweighs any detriment from the publicity of that vandal or their vandalism. Stating that a certain individual is involved in very obvious vandalism probably does not enable any better recognition or response to that vandalism—it merely adds to the legend of a specific vandal. On the other hand, documenting a new form of vandalism in a neutral manner like Wikipedia:Vandalism § Types of vandalism ensures a suitable awareness of that vandalism's existence.
How to mitigate vandalism
If you see information pages about vandals or vandalism that you think have no practical purpose,
- If the page is pure vandalism, tag it with {{Db-g3}};
- If the page is created by banned or blocked users after the ban or block, tag it with {{Db-g5}};
- If the page is an obvious personal attack, remove all content and then tag it with {{Db-g10}};
- Otherwise, quietly revert or blank. Reserve listing the page as miscellany for deletion for serious matters, noting that a high-profile forum discussion of vandalism is the opposite of "deny recognition".
User pages of indefinitely blocked users (except sockpuppets and banned users) that have no practical purpose can be nominated for deletion as such after a short while.[b] Remember that this is not a criterion for speedy deletion, unless the page is pure vandalism, or a personal attack. In general, "socktags" on blocked sockpuppets' user pages should only be added, removed, or modified by administrators or sockpuppet investigations clerks.

Footnotes
- ^ One notable example is here, where a vandal requested their own long term abuse page be created for them – that same user had previously taken screenshots of their own sockpuppets' vandalism and added them to other long term abuse pages.
- ^ IP addresses stored for registered users are only kept in the system for so long; categorising a user after this period of time serves no useful purpose.

[A] clear relationship exists between the roles associated with cyberbullying and those associated with problematic Internet use. As such, the possibility of presenting PIU [problematic Internet usage] varies between OR [odds ratio] = 3.21 in the case of cyberbullies to OR = 7.59 for cyberbully-victims.

The slogan "Don't feed the troll" has recently been used persistently in an attempt to keep trolls from becoming the center of attention.[111] Since the reactions to it are a troll's main food source. Getting into an argument with a troll, responding to it, or attempting to help it will always result in failure. In this case, the best way to deal with a troll is to ignore it. That's why, being unresponsive to troll messages, words, and similar posts have become a popular strategy for dealing with troll behavior. [112,19] Depriving trolls of the attention they seek has a similar effect to the rapid extinguishment of a fire deprived of oxygen.
