Unusual vandalism related to school staff

This comment is to provide context on the reversions on this article and also Glenora, Tasmania.

About six months ago, an anonymous IP editor added updates about the major schools to both articles. Normally, not an issue, but in this case the same person was the former principal at Glenora and the current principal at Austins Ferry Primary. The comment also specifically mentions the persons religion, political views, and names of family members of this person.

The section is then padded out with random stats about the school, possibly to make the entire section look legitimate, or to imply that the school is of poor standards (and by implication, the named staff). Phrases like "below average" are used (of course, half of all schools will be below the average). This detail was added by this editor about these two schools specifically - not to any other school.

This article has since been padded out by a different anonymous IP editor with a bit more info about other schools, it is unknown as to whether this is the same editor.

Due to doxxing/personal info, and bad faith editing, I'm going to revert and semi-protect both articles. -- Chuq (talk) 00:35, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
