I have a new idea someone could do, which is something to the effect of "This User has made such a poor contribution that it could be considered vandalism."

The image is an image from the website: https://pl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babcia. - Third for Somaliland. The text is: This user supports the independence of Somaliland. The image is the flag of Somaliland. - Fourth for Tomaszów Mazowiecki. The text for it is: This user was born in Tomaszów Mazowiecki. - Fifth for Palestine.
