::I was –possibly wrongly– alarmed by the roughly 20 contemporaneous edits on the header topic. Purgy (talk) 07:18, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

:::It looks like all those edits were done using the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:OAuthListConsumers/view/28113b40587f3b91b6ce559da734e78c Wiki Education Dashboard].

::::Thanks for looking, and I apologize for me falsely raising an alarm. The simultaneity and their number triggered me. Purgy (talk) 17:12, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

::::: No worries, it is good to check that school assignments don't go off the rails. I concur that from a spot check, these edits look fine to me. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 03:40, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
