Hi, I was wondering why this sentence, “ The website of Atlanta Police Department, atlantapd.org was DDoSed and taken offline by the Anonymous hacking group in protest against Rayshard Brooks' killing[12]” is relevant for inclusion into this article? Grahamevan05178 (talk) 20:52, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am concerned by the level of disruptive editing by unregistered IPs. There has been a significant uptick in IP editing since the Killing of Rayshard Brooks. This has resulted in some cases of possible vandalism. Just recently, the demographics of the APD were changed to make it look like the vast majority of APD officers were white which is factually inaccurate. The edit was quickly reverted back to the correct demographics. I’m afraid this disruption will continue for some time but I am not sure if it warrants protection. Feel free to reply to this thread with your thoughts on the level of IP disruption in this article. Grahamevan05178 (talk) 02:13, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'd second this. Given the current political climate, it is reasonable - as you said - to expect that this disruptive editing will continue for some time. Though I am trying to "assume good faith" (WP:AGF) it is difficult to see the edit you have described as anything other than politically motivated vandalism. Article protection seems like the obvious play.CelebrateMotivation (talk) 04:13, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
