Hi @sarahw ,
I think someone is trying to find security breach into iFixit tutorials webpages by trying to inject HTML code into tutorials fields.
Code injection are a common attack method and can be used to force a webpage to display content that it sould not display, like embeding malicious code, display a link or redirect users to a malicious website. It seem's this user didn't succeed, so don't worry.
Here is a link to the users profiles :
https://fr.ifixit.com/User/3393166/kingback
And
https://fr.ifixit.com/User/3393243/user23
And Also
https://fr.ifixit.com/User/3394179/attacker

-I think you sould consider permanantly ban this (or theses) users by blacklisting their(s) IP adresses because they know how to create multiples fake profiles easilly.
