#1 and this comment to the bbc by a lgf reader was perfect:

I notice you make no mention of the >7000 edits made from the BBC IP addresses.

Two that stand out are the change to George W. Bush's middle name, from Walker to W*nk*r. Also someone at the BBC changed "terrorists' to 'freedom fighters'.

There are many more or this ilk, all biased in the usual BBC institutional anti-US, anti-war, left wing direction.

For partial list of BBC edits people might like to look here, some of them are just amazing!
