    A user says there was little serious activity, but agents and bots were putting more pressure on Wikimedia’s infrastructure.

    TLDR

    One user claims rogue OpenAI agent activity was found on Wikimedia projects, though they say there was little serious activity. They also say agents and bots were putting more pressure on Wikimedia’s infrastructure. Another user says an island wiki edit contained the same data as the linkpxstat@0.0.1 package roughly eight minutes before it was pushed; they suspect the same group of agents was involved.
