Question: I innocently edited the title of the question, [I accidentally a whole fact table](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6364780/i-accidentally-a-whole-fact-table). Apparently, this kind of grammar with no verb is [an internet meme](http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/i-accidentally). Because I was not familiar with said meme (which I do find funny and will probably use elsewhere), it suckered me and at least two others into [revising it](https://stackoverflow.com/posts/6364780/revisions).

When I edit a post, I spend my own valuable time to contribute to the quality of the site, with no other compensation than the fact that I am indefinably helping somehow (and, I suppose, serving the complaining OCD voices in my head that don't like to see poor grammar).

Anyway, while the title may be humorous, I'm not so sure it's the best kind of humor to have here, given how it's going to keep sucking people in to try to edit the question.

I also don't think locking the question is the right answer, either, because this won't prevent people from visiting the question to *try* to fix it.

What do you think?

Answer: 
The title should be edited correctly and the post locked. The users involved should at least be looked at closely. While perhaps not intended as such, it's just internet vandalism and isn't really what this site is about.
I was the OP of the SO question being debated here and I'm sorry for creating such a hubbub.

I'd like to point out that I made the first rollback with a note attached explaining my reasons -- as well as the second (because I was feeling chuffed) but the flurry of edits that followed came from 2 unrelated users, not me.

I chose the original title because it was entertaining (to me at least) and eye catching but also because it was accurate. I had no idea what I had done to the fact table after cancelling the update. "I accidentally a whole fact table" was exactly the state I was in at the time. I knew I had done something to the fact table and it was accidental but I couldn't say exactly what it was that I had done.

I understand the concerns of the community to provide clear questions and answers. I felt like the content of the post was serious and valuable enough that a bit of levity would be overlooked. I obviously under-estimated the will of the editors.

Anyway, my concern now is that the question as written "Corrupted database table with invalid query: what has it done and will it roll back?" is actually incorrect. The table wasn't corrupted. I'd not have a problem, for the sake of peace, to see it changed to a more accurate: "Invalid Update Statement: What has it done and will it roll back?" if anyone with the authority cares enough to make the change.

Lastly, I find the furor over this to be disheartening. I'm not here to cause trouble, I've been a member since the whole thing started and have preached the value of the site to everyone who's ever come to me with a question. While I take my work quite seriously, I think it's fun, fascinating and quite often funny. I have worked with the guys who never smile at work. "The Glower" and "The Sigh" are the only 2 expressions they own and you know what? They crush they enthusiasm out of a team. Using words like "Vandal" and "Troll" to describe a little levity and letting that sort of attitude pervade the spirit of the site is the short road to ending up like ExpertsExchange.
