Vandalism, it looks like it was, to me
This addition and three subsequent refinements from the same IP number editor represent, in my quick-scan opinion, a sophisticated piece of vandalism. It looks serious, with "Citations needed" and all. But I have to believe it was pure fabrication. (I haven't Googled the "roommate" named and red-linked but think he's probably fabricated; or being tarred by the same unfortunate brush.) In any event, this removal, fortunately only an hour and a half later, by another IP-er, nonetheless used only the Edit summary reason "Undue influence towards the negative". That led me to want to highlight my opinion. It's a good test of exactly what editors need to be on the alert for -- one word may eventually have triggered a bot-based removal but the sooner the better. (It's that word more than anything that triggers my high degree of confidence in my judgment.) Cheers. Swliv (talk) 05:04, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia app: bad headline
When you open this article with the Android Wikipedia app, the caption that appears at the top (superimposed on Hanlon's picture) is "Hungarian-American mathematician, computer scientist and educator".
I see nothing in the article itself about "Hungarian-American". Is this headline automatically generated? Might the headline-generating algorithm be confused by the fact that Dartmouth College has had two presidents who were mathematicians and computer scientists — and the other one was born in Hungary, — Preceding unsigned comment added by ABehrens (talk • contribs) 05:59, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
