Please help me with...what does this message on my edit mean:"(Tags: HHVM, possible BLP issue or vandalism)"

 * First, just ignore HHVM, which stands for "HipHop Virtual Machine". I have no idea why that is being displayed in lots of edit summaries (though it's distracting) but it just means some aspect of the execution by the software involved was run by that engine (a brand new feature), supposedly allowing more efficiently/quicker operations. "BLP" in the edit summary was a link, and went to our policy on biographies on living persons, the gist of which is that such pages are subject to much higher scrutiny, higher sourcing requirements and more attention to make sure possibly defamatory content is not included. Vandalism, of course, refers to edits that are meant to harm Wikipedia (which happen all the time). Why these tags were placed is that we have a number of automated systems that attempt to detect various issues so that they are flagged for an actual human being to look and possibly revert the edit, if warranted. These automated programs are pretty nifty in that they do get it right a fair amount of the time, but they are still dumb programs. I am no programmer, so I cannot tell you exactly what algorithms, etc. were used by the filters involved to result in the tags but I suspect it is some combination of the fact that you are a very new user; the very fact that the page is a BLP, and most importantly, that you removed a cited source (commonly seen in vandalism), that only a human can actually assess to see if it was).
