Other pranks may use Wikipedia's editing features to make malicious edits, such as removing sensible content, adding inaccurate information, changing the category of an entry, etc.

How to reduce hoaxes in Wikipedia?
It is advisable to backtrack, ban and ignore.Reputation is often what long-term saboteurs want, and this prevents them from succeeding.Previously, saboteurs were categorized neatly to create their own "location" on Wikipedia.No need to do that now!When the "contributions" of persistent spoilers are quickly rolled back, their accounts blocked, and their shouting attempts to attract attention go unnoticed, they quickly tire.The main motivation for the vandals is the perception that these vandalism can have a long-term impact on Wikipedia.On the contrary, if they simply write back, their accounts are blocked, and other Wikipedians don't look straight at it, they'll leave because they're bored.
