Am a seldom-editor of wiki, on a phone rather than full web UI, so not sure I can do all that's needed on this. But it appears someone's trolled the Golden Record section: "... The record, made under the direction of a team including Carl Sagan and Timothy Ferris, includes photos of the Earth and its lifeforms...". Ferris' DOB is 1977, so he didn't participate in a design completed in '77.

Astrolabe150c introduced the vandalism in mid-January, was reverted by bot, and insisted the info was factual the next day. Astrolabe's acct was created, made these large inserts, and subsequently went silent dark within a span of a few days. ArtDent (talk) 13:11, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am adding back the detailed information (three paragraphs, not that much) about the recent communication incident and its resolution. It was removed with the argument "doesn't sound like it needs a section of its own", but the event is currently at ITN on the Main Page and many readers are probably looking for more information about what happened than a single sentence.
