Heads up! Let's protect the little people.

@krisrodriguez @amber take a look at this user https://www.ifixit.com/User/About/414294... and check the new user on here https://www.ifixit.com/User/4254096/Nano... Something odd and it really may not mean anything. Maybe just a little person who needs a bit off validation and guidance. I am also a bit concerned about the about page. Nothing specific it just somehow worries me.@sarahw iFixit needs to start a mentoring program :-)

Maybe just an old guy overreacting but I feel better if we can all just keep an eye out for this aspiring fixer. No, I am not worried about points or upvoting or anything like that. that would be to easy.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hi @oldturkey03, thanks for pointing these accounts out. I'll let @krisrodriguez and @amber decide what's best but a mentoring program is a good idea and something to think about and discuss. I'll talk to my team about it and @amber, maybe we can talk about this too? Thanks again!

@krisrodriguez Czarina, can you somehow edit the about page? It is the age and the certain amount of naivete, that comes with that. I just feel we need to make sure that little people like that are always welcomed but are safe. I just worry about that little bit of info that may just be TMI. Like I said before, it may just be me. I do worry about kids getting into trouble by providing too much information. We have a great community and I do know we are all good people, but........I know, I know it's just me. To many bad things, to many things that can't be unseen. Tell me to get over it :-))

@oldturkey03, I'm going to discuss this with @amber before we go in and make any changes. But, I just looked at their profile and it appears that they removed their age.
