   Format: MarkdownItexSomeone styling themselves 'the corrector' has made quite major edits to the [[local-global principle]] as well as altering [[FRS-theorem on rational 2d CFT ]] slightly. That latter entry has also been edited by 'the riddler'. My guess is that the changes need checking out, but I am not competent to do so. I checked the first persons IP number and it looked slightly suspicious. It is 115.178.250.123. The other number (185.56.137.14) is listed as being active in forum spam. The change made by the latter would be easy to correct but I will leave it for the moment as evidence of the spam.

   Format: MarkdownItexI just noticed the riddler is back at [[Yuri Manin]]. and also again at [[local-global principle]]. Each change is minor but destroys the grammar of the entry.

   Format: MarkdownItexThanks for the alert. This is weird. I have rolled back to before this person's edits. (Not that "[[local-global principle]]" is a particularly valuable entry in its present form, but these edits certainly didn't improve it.)

   Format: MarkdownItexThere is more interference from that source in various p-adic entries. I have rolled them back one stage. (This person should be blocked as a spammer.)
