Incredibly benign compared to some other stuff here, but on the talk page for the Hoover Institution (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Hoover_Institution):
A contributor waits 13 years to slam-dunk someone with a grammar correction; perhaps the longest delay I've ever seen.
As a bonus: they hit the "your" but miss the "its."

Yes, playing the smart kid who's supposed to be black and whose parents are stereotypical black yuppies who celebrate Kwanzaa.

Literal nobody singer who has a Wiki article that rivals Alexander The Great in length. Nearly every single entry was made by the same user. Odd...

I don't know why you'd be enticed to watch those videos with those god-awful thumbnails.

Is suspiciously more detailed and lengthy than it's commie counterpart. I'm sure it isn't bias however.

The talk page is even worse, accusing the Red Terror page of being propaganda for even suggesting that the Spanish Republic was a Soviet puppet regime and that a major factor of the Civil War was anti-Catholic violence conducted by the Communist government and its paramilitaries.White Terror (Spain) - Wikipedia

I mentioned a few pages back an oddity on many Wikipedia biographies - against the usual practice, several years ago I noticed that the 'Early Life' section was saying the mother's name first (despite the fact that we usually get our surnames from our fathers). After checking several biographies for actors, e-celebs, and others, many (if not most) of these changes appear to be the work of a single editor by the name of 'All Hallow's Wraith'.
Small example of Woody Harrelson's, but I found a ton of others. I haven't found instances of Hallow's Wraith arguing with others about this yet, it seems to really depend on who 'controls' the page (for instance, Hallow's Wraith edited John Madden's page but it still calls him the son of [father] and [mother] rather than the reverse).
en.wikipedia.org
The user mostly makes small (and seemingly helpful) biographical 'early life' edits, and has been doing it since 2007.
Maybe it is not that important, but its a strange Wikipedism that I can't see a style guide or policy about, the user has just been able to get away with it because he will edit so many early life sections.
Another example. This one I chose at random, the 19th century poet George Cabot Lodge, who had several descendants go into politics, has another mother first, father second early life section. Guess who appears in the edit history changing this?

Thought of some random, long dead actor I saw in a few movies, Richard Conte, who also got the Hallow's Wraith treatment.

I noticed that a while back but never really paid any thought to it as well. I just assumed it was some autistic autobiographical formatting that Wikipedos get caught up in, I didn't think a wikisperg would be making these edits. What their intention is I don't know, but my wager is empowering women sperging.
