Greetings Wikipedia Review!
I am a documentary filmmaker and I am currently working on a project about Wikipedia. We are interested in getting in touch with anyone who has deliberately engaged in “vandalism†activities on Wikipedia.
This project is an attempt to understanding what Wikipedia vandalism looks like, how it is done, what motivates those who participate in such activities, and what the broader implications are for Wikipedia and other information sources. It is important to note that we are in no way condoning or approving of vandalizing Wikipedia. We simply want to know all about it.
$500 will be awarded for submissions chosen to be featured in the film.
Guidelines:
- Ideally, we are looking for vandalism that has survived a long time, and preferably that has not yet been dealt with by the Wikipedia community. - We are looking for content vandalism, or vandalism that promotes claims known by the editor to be untrue or unsubstantiated. Other forms of vandalism will be considered. - No new vandalism! We do not want to encourage vandalism activities, so only existing vandalism, conducted prior to the first of April, 2011, will be considered.

Thanks,
