Probably the same issue: T272521

At any rate, this is a WikiWho bug (which is the service that powers Who Wrote That).

Why was this task closed? It's still happening.

Apologies — it wasn't at the time I closed this, and testing again seems to show its still working?

That being said, further work to resolve the underlying issue is likely to take place at T272521: WikiWho thinks an article is vandalism/spam. Would it be okay with you to close this task as a duplicate of T272521, as that tracks the underlying issue?
