":: Not to be contrary, but this edit, while fully unconstructive, adverse to our policies on NPOV and our guidelines on tone, is not vandalism. As I believe you know, Vandalism is ""Vandalism is any addition, removal, or change of content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia."" (emph. in orig.) In fact, ""test"" edits are not considered vandalism - vandalistic edits require that one be acting in bad faith - specifically ""adding a personal opinion to an article once is not vandalism — it's just not helpful, and should be removed or restated."" PM is not permitted to remove or restate such, as he is not permitted to edit articles about living individuals. Additionally, if PM intended to alledge he was ""removing vandalism,"" there are a series of steps he should have taken after removing said vandalism - he did not warn the user, and he did not mark the edit as minor. In summary, said edit, however rightful it was, however justified it was under WP:BLP, and all else, was expressly prohibited by PM's probation. If he would like to apply for a modification to that probation allowing him to make good edits to living persons biography, I would have no comments on that application, but untill such time, he is not permitted to edit biographies of living people.
