The only edit I made to the Mike Marson page was to fix the coding on the info box, I did not add anything about him being dead. After you edited that you I did a quick Google search to see if he was dead but fond nothing on the first few previews to make me think he was dead so I assumed his page was vandalized and you had fixed it. As it turns out the vandalism was by an Anon user 99.244.90.79 I did not realize they had made 4 edits to the page the first two screwed up the infobox resulting in gibberish on the top of the page I fixed that so it would be displaying correctly. What we have is a miss communication on who did what, I don't like being blamed for erroneous vandalism especially of this magnitude so in the future please check your facts as well.--Mo Rock...Monstrous (talk) 22:37, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
- Unfortunately I don't think there is anyway to find out, it's probably someone who just added that information and will never make another edit again. To make matters worse this could have come from a library or computer lab so a block might unintentionally stop productive editors from accessing the site. I have no I deal why anyone would want to vandalize pages especially with that kind of information. Most, I assume, are kids thinking things are funny but to claim someone is dead Who would find that funny? It's absolutely horrible that this juvenile prank has caused any kind of distress to his family. I feel genuinely sorry for them and I wish I had noticed that that information was added prior to the infobox being screwed up, I would have removed it.--Mo Rock...Monstrous (talk) 03:45, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
