The state Employment Security Commission edited Wikipedia entries on "Babylon 5," cookbook author Sandra Lee and the town of Wendell.
The most interesting change, however, was an October 2006 edit to the entry on UNC-Chapel Hill football coach Butch Davis, who was then under consideration for the job.
An ESC employee wrote that it was a "failed program."
If Davis takes the job he will be rebuilding a program that has bottomed and is on life support. The aluminum glare from the stands from the lack of fan interest is indicative of UNC's support of football.
On another occasion, someone at the same computer undid vandalism to N.C. State coach Chuck Amato's entry. Another ESC computer, meantime, was used to vandalize Pantera drummer Vinnie Paul's entry.
The previously anonymous changes were revealed using Wikiscanner.

Re: Employment Security edits Wikipedia
Coming from a city of Charlotte IP address -- my favorite has to be adding the phrase “Liberal Bastard” to the description of John Edwards.
It only lasted a moment back in March before being reported as vandalism to the Wiki entry, but that is nice work indeed.
