Undeclared student and LLM editing in December 2024

Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Between 26 December 2024 and 2 January 2025, a large volume of text was added to the article by Special:Contributions/JulieRingheim (26678 bytes, adding the section Laws and regulations), Special:Contributions/Ella_05YANG (10769 bytes, adding the section Economic perspective), Special:Contributions/RasmusKBG (6603 bytes, adding the section Geopolitical landscape of Deep sea mining), and Special:Contributions/Evelina_Goian (3712 bytes, adding the section Future Trends and Technologies). All four appear to be single-purpose accounts. Ella_05YANG's edit is clearly undeclared LLM-generated or LLM-assisted text. In addition, JulieRingheim indicated in 21:36, 26 December 2024 that her contributions were for a university course. I've now tagged the relevant sections for review/cleanup.

Tagging @MrOllie who helped with a previous round of cleanup of content added by some of the same editors in December 2024. Preimage (talk) 15:07, 29 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

Flagged for AI, info: these 2025 expansions (previously noted as AI), note extreme WP:AISIGNS e.g. superficial analyses, large density of WP:AIVOCAB, canned structure about challenges, etc

The person who added the edits said "it's not AI, it's for a school assignment," which is not actually an answer as lots of people do school assignments with AI. Gnomingstuff (talk) 15:43, 5 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

These have been removed. Thanks for flagging the page! TangoWhiskeyDelta (talk) 21:38, 25 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
