was it from an ip address? i've noticed RC patrollers have a tendency to be over-zealous on 'anonymous' edits. _______________________________________________ Nope RC patroller was just reverting eyes shut, I think. The poor guy (not an IP)has got a vandalism tag against him that is going to show on every bot now when he does large edits. I went through all over his contrib log and he is a star at sourcing (John Hopkin college was his alma mata) - just feel very guilty that he got caught in a very vain attempt at boosting count. the vandal guy even mentions his low count and "rough start" in wikipedia it all seems a little crass when genuine editors who can be bothered spend time checking if something is POV or vandalism have to pick up the damage and find out why it was done.
