Inquiry from a Public Relations Representative for Biogen on Updating Misplaced Pages Article

Hello,

My name is Matt Nemet and I am a Public Relations professional at GCI Health, a firm specializing in healthcare. One of our clients, Biogen, has expressed concern regarding outdated information found on the Misplaced Pages page for its multiple sclerosis treatment candidate, Opicinumab.

We understand that Misplaced Pages readers depend on active and thoughtful editors for accurate and supported articles. Additionally, we felt that given your previous efforts editing Misplaced Pages pages like Opicinumab you might be interested in reviewing this page through the lens of updating older information.

To further disclose our position, we are aware that per Misplaced Pages’s guidelines neither the company nor the company’s representatives can make direct edits to Misplaced Pages pages. Respecting these rules, our priority is ensuring that this issue is appropriately brought to light. Therefore, we are engaging you, an experienced editor who can be trusted with assessing the current state of the page against publicly available information on Biogen and Opicinumab to make accurate and appropriate updates.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Is there an explanation for this edit?

Do you have any explanation for this highly-inappropriate edit, or should we be considering taking action such as a topic ban from gender-related topics? NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 04:38, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

NorthbySouthBaranof I reverted it after I did it, lmfao. What absolute Nazism that you threaten to ban me for vandalizing an article one time, and proceeded to revert said vandalism. Misplaced Pages has become a joke. The true proprietary of fake news. Boomer Vial 00:47, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

Ok, revoking talk page access because this account has clearly been compromised. Ian.thomson (talk) 00:48, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

Blocked

I just don't see a user who was extremely active in reverting vandalism and this sort of stuff going on to vandalize an article this way. Ian.thomson (talk) 04:55, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

Ian.thomson Wrong. I see since the accusation of my account being compromised didn't stick, you've moved on to baseless accusations that I'm a sock. Just stop. You're embarrassing yourselves. Boomer Vial 01:58, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

Blocked, but not for account compromise

CheckUser indicates that there was no compromise on this account and that this is not the first time you have vandalized Misplaced Pages. Your block as a compromised account has been converted to a CheckUser block. If you wish to appeal, follow the instructions at WP:GAB. TonyBallioni (talk) 01:53, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

TonyBallioni Stop lying. That's not me, and you have zero evidence that it is. Oh, let me guess? We're just supposed to take your word for it because you're an admin? How sad. I will not be appealing, as I've already denounced Misplaced Pages. It's just nice to see you admins being exposed for the frauds you are, and watching you scramble to come up with an excuse as to why I was banned. LOL. Boomer Vial 01:55, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

I've seen the evidence and Tony isn't lying. I have placed the evidence where other checkusers can see it here just in case it comes up again.

BereanHunter Oh, but how coincidental that I'm not allowed to see this supposed evidence which you back myself. How convenient for those laying down the accusations. If there is actual proof, which there isn't, why can't I see it? Why is there zero mention of which account I'm a supposedly a sock of? How come to conversation went from 'Compromised", to "CheckUser blocked" when I replied to my talk page? Nothing here adds up, except for the fact that I'm no longer interested in upholding ypur narrative, so you therefore blocked me from editing.

I don't understand how you cannot see this. Of course you wouldn't, though. It's more important to protect the cabal of administrators, isn't it?

How sad. I, again, don't want to come back. The attitude and self-protection displayed by yourself, as well as other administrators is why. Thank you for accusing me of something completely false, ans changing your story in the face of vandalizing a single article (which I myself reverted). Boomer Vial 18:20, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

BereanHunter Busted. Boomer Vial 18:30, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

A check was run because a steward was considering locking this account as compromised. They usually ask a local CheckUser to confirm before they do so. When I ran the check, it indicated that your account has always been operated by you. It also indicated that you have vandalized this project on multiple occassions. After you denied this, I asked for independent review by another CheckUser. Berean Hunter reviewed your block at my request, and well, you’re still blocked. You can’t see the evidence as we do not publicly connect accounts and their technical data. Also, no clue how he’s “busted”: he’s agreeing with my conclusion.
