This is a fascinating story. I wish you could provide more details, or even name what the article was about.

Sounded like Epstein.

Fascinating story but one that begs to have the other side heard.

The other side is that I am a fantastical psychotic crank and that governments don't use Wikipedia ops to control a narrative.

It's hard to know what to make of your comment. Consider the perspective of others reading it:

You allude to a government conspiracy but don't elaborate. You say you investigated this story, but don't describe your investigation (ie. Did you interview victims or did you read blogs online?). You mention this all happened on Wikipedia so presumably there exists some kind of paper trail, but you don't provide any supporting evidence. You describe "random objects" in your mail but don't describe them.

From the reader's perspective this story could be:

1. An unbiased account of a (unnamed) government unfairly wielding their influence over Wikipedia

2. The result of someone upset that their Pizzagate exposé wasn't being taken seriously on Wikipedia

3. An exercise in creative writing

Some kind of supporting evidence would greatly improve your comment.

I investigated the story by reading newspaper articles and government documents. I'd like to forget this ever happened, but also would like to serve as a (anonymous internet) warning. Heed it or not, up to you. I don't want to link to the paper trail and wake up any dormant monsters. The "random objects" I also don't describe, in case the objects ring a bell to someone. But you can imagine a door handle or a travel bottle of shampoo.

If you want specifics, I suppose I could mail you those. I fully agree that the account sounds fantastical and psychotic, but it is what I was comfortable sharing. I also think it is a smart tactic if you wanted to discredit someone. I never told anyone close to me either and completely submitted after the article was deleted.

Can you provide a link to one of those newspaper articles or government documents? That would go a long way toward establishing your credibility.

Sure, but not publicly. Provide contact.

I'm going to bite, as well. My pubkey is in keybase from my profile, and my e-mail is on github (or you can just use keybase chat)

I'm curious too. [email protected]

I am curious too.

Also an account less than an hour old. GP's post would be a great example for a critical thinking class.

I made no secret about using a throwaway.

I'm very torn. I'd believe that there are powers that be at Wikipedia that might do this. I also would believe that a total crank was making this up.
