Wikipedia is always being vandalized. Vandals are now getting smarter and changing articles or pages in a "Low Key" way. The purpose of this essay is to to give you examples and a better understanding of "Low Key" vandalism. Below are a few examples:
The statements in these examples include made-up facts.
(Note: the changes are bolded in each example.)
- Example 1:
The statement reads "Study shows that 5 of 10 dolphins will experience sickness in their life time" The vandal comes out and then changes the sentence. The statement now reads "Study shows that 6 of 10 dolphins will experience cancer in their life time."
- Example 2:
The statement reads "Carrots are good for health but too much will cause orange skin" the vandal now changes the sentence to "Carrots are good for health but too much will cause orange skin and other health risks."

However this did not work as expected..."
