Hi all,
I don't think this has been discussed yet. An editor from India with
the handle Legolas2186 has been indef'd from the English Wikipedia due
to years of fabrication of sources on articles related to Madonna,
Lady Gaga and other artistes.
Here are a few relevant links:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Legolas2186/Major_contributions
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Legolas2186/Fixing_citation_problems
This highlights the vulnerability of the encyclopedia to insidious
editing even when published sources were called into question. In
this case, a trusted member of the volunteer community displayed a
pattern of consistent misrepresentations and even fabrication of
sources in some cases.
thanks,
Anirudh
