So today someone has defaced the @realDonaldTrump Wikipedia page. They inserted a huge "fuck trump" image, and the page has been like that since. Curious to see who did it, I checked the history of the wiki. The current revision? There was no vandalism. It did not exist on the version page, but the live page has it. live page - archive.is/1zssN current revis. page- archive.is/yN81m And it's also bluelocked, so people can't change it unless they're 30+ days on the site. But the worrying thing is that the addition of the vandalism isn't showing up as a revision. Any other changes would be logged. This just appeared, as if someone who is able to directly edit wiki pages w/o the normal means inserted it. The file is hosted on WP's servers, and a quick google of the file name shows that the only other use of it was for a similar defacing of the wiki page of Ulysses S Grant, as seen here: archive.is/VIVNw This time it is present in the revision page - archive.is/aCU1A The page was edited after 1.1.18, so my theory is that this attack took place just before then and was somehow during the time of the editor starting his edit and saving, the image was manually placed in. I had a theory that this was done to other presidents, so I searched Abe Lincoln. He's fine. bill clinton, george bush? also fine. This is odd. Extracting data from the image itself shows that it was taken using an Apple iPhone 6s (There's soooo many jokes I could make about that) at 1130 AM, 3.5.2017 at 44° 59' 9" North, 93° 15' 45.5" West. Or, West Island Ave, Minneapolis, MN. Using google's reverse search I found no source for the image. using my own however, I found two sources: flikr scraper using the tag /fucktrump, and on a wikimedia page for user MB298,who says his images are done on an iphone 6s. It is unknown if he is the vandal or just the photographer.
Still on the live page, the edit is not in history.
Not that I'm concerned with kikepedia, but I'm curious as to how this edit was made without being in the history.

Good effort OP, though you should probably archive it.
Cameron Martin
My mistake OP. I'm curious as well.
Nathan Robinson

Probably Endchan's doing

Someone in high editorial position?
Aiden Young
Someone with some skill should replace it with this.
Ryder Martinez
Spooky shit. This thread requires sticky and more research.
Ian Allen
So is this a hate crime?
Jack Campbell
no, no black people were minorly inconvenienced.

Let it stay up. Jimmy Wales and his begapedia chose their side with the Cultural Marxism page. The more normies that understand there is no neutral site, the clearer the division between the useful and the useless. Use Infogalactic instead.
It's probably been done by maliciously editing a template used by the page, hence why it doesn't show up in the edit history of the page itself. This is a standard GNAA wikiruin technique.

mods/admins can alter edit history. Similar shit happened during the election for someone else.
Liam Walker
You mean something like a XSS?
Chase Morales
Sometimes, but that probably requires combination with exploits like CVE-2017-8808. MediaWiki articles import "templates" for frequently used things, and if a template isn't protected from malicious editing correctly a troll can deface a bunch of articles that use it at once.

Being this new.. of course it was the admins
Ethan Lewis
No, they just modified a separate page that has been constantly quoted (a template) from Trump's page. This means that Trump's was never modified, hence why there's nothing in its history section.
This means any other non-protected templates can be edited and the anti-vandalism bots won't inmediatly find out.
Zachary Anderson
Thanks for the laugh, I reported you anyway.

GNAA is still active? Maxim jej.

I think it's just individuals like meepsheep occasionally doing something now, but technically yeah trolls are still done under the gaynigger banner. E.g. they recently clickjack redirected a bunch of wikipedia articles for major tech companies to gnaa.press . L0de Radio Hour is still going too.

Zionists control wikiJew This is a psyop to stimulate your loyalties to Trump in response to intent to attack Iran.
