Hi! My name is JohnLaurens333 (formerly known as JohnLaurensAnthonyRamos333), and I'm a Wikipedian who enjoys copy editing and reverting vandalism. I've been on the English Wikipedia for over 2 years and made over 6,000 contributions.
Vandalism is when an editor, in bad faith, makes an unconstructive edit to a page, such as blanking or adding gibberish. Sometimes gibberish or blanking can be an accident (making it simply an unconstructive edit, not vandalism), which is why it is important to always assume good faith. Most of the time, my reverting edit summaries say possible vandalism, not vandalism, because I often can't know if it's vandalism, a test, or a mistake.
My edit wasn't vandalism. How do I get it fixed without engaging in an edit war?
I may mistakenly revert your edit and label it as vandalism. If I do so, I apologize. Please state why your edit wasn't vandalism on your talk page or mine.
How can I help revert vandalism?
Thanks for wanting to help! Reverting vandalism is a never-ending job. You can join an anti-vandalism WikiProject, or you can just revert vandalism on your own. A useful tool is the recent changes page, which is especially helpful if you use the filters to find vandalism.

FAQ
Are you a bot?
No, I am not a bot. I use templates to issue notices and warnings on talk pages, but I'm a human being. :) My username is a tribute to John Laurens and is not my real name.
If you're JohnLaurens333, who's JohnLaurensAnthonyRamos333?
That's me! I changed my username from JohnLaurensAnthonyRamos333 to JohnLaurens333 for the sake of convenience on January 13th, 2025.
What are your pronouns?
For privacy reasons, I don't like to disclose my off-wiki pronouns, but on-wiki you can use they/them for me if you like.
If you would like to be able to right click on subheadings to open them up in the Wikipedia edit box, do the following:
Click the Preferences link at the top of the page. Then click the Editing tab. Then check the box next to Enable section editing by right-clicking on section titles (JavaScript). And finally, click the Save button.
This only works with browsers that support Javascript (but all of the latest versions of all of the major web browsers do).

So...I'm not perfect
I'm sometimes an impulsive editor, so please be patient with me! I thought I was more careful with my edits, but NOPE! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ My overeager self always takes control. Sorry for any inconveniences that may cause. I'll do my best!
To-do
Review the edit that IP made on Theodore McCarrick (this has been on here so long IPs aren't a thing anymore, jeez John, get to work)
Archive talk page messages; it's a huge mess in there Done!
This user dies a little inside whenever they see the word you in an article.
This user uses edit counts and service awards as helpful goals and milestones when editing Wikipedia, but still knows that they are not an accurate reflection of how much they have contributed to the site.
D:<
Nothing annoys this user more than when a teacher says that Wikipedia isn't reliable and that anybody can enter anything completely untrue that'll stay.
Roses are #FF0000, Violets are #0000FF, If you understood that, Then you're a nerd too!
