Not vandalism?
Hi Alasdair, I know it might look improbable at first glance, but this seems not to be about vandalism. The link does go to an article, and that references an external (as it were) site, and so on ... if it is vandalism or a hoax it's very complex! So I am thinking it is real and one just has to get over the double-take! Do please let me know if you know that I am wrong, though. Also, I am sorry about my slightly snarky edit summary, which was uncalled-for, and was caused by insufficient coffee, wine, dog walking etc. Cheers DBaK (talk) 19:09, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
