== External links modified ==

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to {{plural:1|one external link|1 external links}} on ]. Please take a moment to review . If necessary, add {{tlx|cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{tlx|nobots|deny{{=}}InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
*Added archive https://web.archive.org/20110119215141/http://www.tvsquad.com:80/2006/08/01/did-colbert-hack-wikipedia-video/ to http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/08/01/did-colbert-hack-wikipedia-video/

Remove Willy from the examples

Their vandalism was 20 years ago, and they were just one vandal out of the hundreds of vandals listed on WP:LTA, they don't even have an LTA page anymore. For the sake of WP:DENY and avoiding trivializing the seriousness of vandalism the mention should be removed and the redirects to it deleted. In fact this whole page needs to be revised to stop giving WP:BEANS to vandals. 77.103.193.166 (talk) 14:51, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
