thread_title:  2017 Salt Lake Tribune editorial 

message: On 22 July 2018, Wikipedia's BLP of Orrin Hatch was vandalized from an anonymous IP address that populated the Infobox death date parameter to make it appear Senator Hatch had died. This falsehood remained online for 12 hours, 36 minutes and in turn corrupted Google's search results to show him as dead. Hatch's office responded lightheartedly with a series of tweets, beginning with "Hi.. @Google? We might need to talk." Mainstream media such as The Washington Post rightly blamed Wikipedia, not Google. "For a few hours on Sunday," The Post reported, "the Republican lawmaker from Utah was dead at the age of 83, according to Wikipedia."
Just before midnight on 23 Jul 2018, Thomas Burr—The Salt Lake Tribune′s Washington bureau chief and past president of the National Press Club—tweeted from his verified account, "Any @Wikipedia editors able to help me track who made this change?" He included a link to the contributions page of the IP user who vandalized Hatch's BLP.
This fishing expedition by a reputable journalist is concerning. No one detests vandalism of Wikipedia more than I, but editors should not assist anyone in outing or doxing anonymous contributors. There are various remedies for vandalism—including warning and blocking the offender and protecting the targeted page—but facilitating off-wiki harassment is not among them.

thread_title:  Beware journalists looking to "out" contributors 

message: This appears in Personal life:
Hatch gave Benny Zippel, an Italian immigrant who was serving as the head of the Chabad-Lubavicher Synagogue in Utah a letter to send to the Immigration and Naturalization Services in 1992 to recommend he be given permanent residence status as a rabbi in Utah. This was not enough, and it took Gordon B. Hinckley linking Zippel up with lawyer Oscar McConkie III to prevent his loss of legal status in the U.S.[134]
It seems rather insignificant. I'll leave it up to a more experienced editor to make the call.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rnagel (talk • contribs) 15:11, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I just read over this paragraph in the article and went, "Huh?"  There is no extant Wikipedia article on Mr. Zippel, no article on this synagogue, no mention of Zippel in the article on Hinckley, and no article on Oscar McConkie III.  Given all of this, I am calling this piece of news irrelevant and am going to remove it.  If anyone disagrees, of course, please feel free to replace and explain.

message: Hatch will cease to be president pro tempore on January 3, 2019. We should have TBD placed in his successor's slot, to show his tenure will be ending. GoodDay (talk) 05:33, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Song composing 

message: It was called the Hatch act...
https://www.mnbar.org/resources/publications/bench-bar/columns/2019/03/05/welcome-to-the-new-age-the-music-modernization-act
What emerged was omnibus bill H.R. 1551, known as the Orrin G. Hatch-Bob Goodlatte Music Modernization Act (MMA).2 The act combined the December 2017 legislation—retroactively named the Musical Works Modernization Act3—with the Classics Protection and Access Act4and the Allocation for Music Producers Act.5 The resulting bill—lauded for its extensive bipartisan support as well as an unprecedented level of cooperation amongst music industry participants—was signed into law on October 11, 2018.6 
BTW - it destroyed independents - see this from one of the premier music lawyers in LA:
