Attached you'll find what I was greeted with earlier today when I checked the Firmware-updating wiki page.

It seems like the template Ambox was modified, which obviously explains the boxes, but I'm not sure about the "Flashing the eMMC in the N900" part, as that page wasn't modified...

Please take actions.


PS: I would gladly have reported this issue by regular channels, but I have no idea of what they actually are.

[Edit] The "Flashing..." part was actually a box, as can be seen here.

Good.

Did you hang the culprit ?
A public execution would be in order.

I'd also be interested to know if this was an "inside job" (a maemo.org user) or an external attack.

Both cases would need (immediate) action.

Hmm...I think you are on to something there British...

Perhaps someone figured the wiki needed to shed a few pounds and lose weight.

Unlikely tho that it was an inside job...

The average maemoite wouldn't sink so low...
and the wickedest-evil-genius would have done worse...
flooding us with Bieber-crap..
or (shudder) Kardashianspam...
or ...(horror) Honey Boo-Boo poo....
