What the students are doing to the article is unacceptable. One added back in the "family life" section (now called "personal life"). I didn't check closely, but it was pretty much the same thing I had removed when I blocked them. Another did the same thing with the Career section. I completely removed the Career section as I wasn't going to spend the time trying to fix it. I severely edited the personal section.

You said you were going to mentor them. If that's what you're doing, off-wiki I assume because I see nothing on-, it's not working. If they can't edit wikipedia properly, perhaps they should be working in a sandbox or at least draft space rather than in a live article.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:58, 23 November 2018 (UTC)


 * I fully understand your frustration, and I am sorry that the students are being this disruptive. I have attempted to work with them on the content they are attempting to add, but I have not been able to get through to them. I have emailed their lecturer and posted on their talk pages to keep the problematic content they have created in their Sandboxes. This is the last day for submission, so I think that has exasperated the situation. Apologies again, I'll continue to monitor the page throughout today as well.
