I'm assuming that you're implying the correct term is: https://en.wikipedia.org/Hebephilia ? I'm sure you're technically correct there, but that's the worst kind of correct. Pedophile is commonly used to refer both to the meaning literally defined by it's Greek language roots (child lover), but also to refer to someone attracted to those under the age of consent. I misread this and thought for a second you were saying the correct term was "moletrouser." I mean absolutely no offense, but it was close enough to molester that my mind went there. | |||

I tend to get a lot of false positives on bots because I generally have knowledge related to controversial topics. So far all of my edits that were reverted by bots, have later been approved. Example: https://en.wikipedia.org/Garry_Hoy Previously noted that in Permanent Midnight Jon Stewart is high on heroin while jumping at windows. When I changed heroin to crack (which is correct), it was reverted. I keep having to fight for little changes like this. It's making using wikipedia difficult and unenjoyable. I'm sticking with it for now, but I'm hoping to get this fixed. This may seem like trivial stuff, but a society needs it's janitors just as much as it needs its pundits and sculptors and engineers. | |||

I have a stalker. I was trying to remove all of the test from my user account profile. I would like the entire thing deleted, but I couldn't figure out how to do that. I would like to remove all instances of ismirth from the wiki if possible, and change them all to anonymous. I will just recreate a new user name in the future once I have the stalker situation taken care of. Thank you. | |||

I tried editing the section on the college for an assignment for class. I received one notification about a youtube video being "unconstructive", so I submitted a report and tried submitting my edits again. My edits are accurate, consistent, and cited with appropriate citations. I am president of my college, so I am very knowledgable of what is accurate and inaccurate. | |||
