Image transcription: A screenshot of a Tumblr post by smol-blue-bird. The post reads: “sometimes when I’m bored, I go through the list of recent bad faith Wikipedia edits that have since been reverted. a lot of them are politically contentious/offensive topics that attract crazies and trolls in general but sometimes there are completely innocent inoffensive articles that people attack for no reason. some guy yesterday vandalized the article on the chemical element francium”. Below is an attached screenshot showing the markdown of the article, reading “Francium is a stupid element”. End transcription.
