Plagiarism detection

I have heard stories about academics gently corrupting Wikipedia, in order to detect those corruptions in student essays, in order to detect banned/uncited/plagiarised uses of it.

I have just asked for two clarifications. I wonder if they are examples of this.

I have no evidence for this wondering.
