Vandalism[edit]

This article has been, and will be, subject to various vandalisms from 4chan users. This includes any references to "digits," "repeating digits," "doubles," "bateman," etc. I recommend semi-protection. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.109.140.189 (talk) 01:49, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any evidence of it. Drmies (talk) 15:00, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What you see, if you look at the article history, is a pattern of vandalism on this relatively obscure article, starting on 21 January. I have no idea whether it has anything to do with 4chan or not, but it's still vandalism. Ghmyrtle (talk) 15:23, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

For other editors' benefit - the vandalism seems to have occurred again, hopefully a one-off. It's to do with this meme, the idea being that it's funny to add the words "Check 'Em" into an article about "Dubs". No, I don't understand it either, but I guess it must be amusing if you're of a certain age and intellectual level. Ghmyrtle (talk) 12:22, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
