Report weird posts here.

Hello, all

So you all know about all of those weird posts that keep happening that seem to be tests? Well, we have another one. Shall we inspect it further?

Post: https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/9745...

And don't get me wrong, it looks like a normal question on the outside, but on the inside, it has "test" lines.

It also appears that it is a "iFixit disclosure policy test". @krisrodriguez, does iFixit do "disclosure policy" tests on the Answers page/etc.?

UPDATE: 10/9/26

This thread will be kept open for further reports.

And I guess that is a no for "testing the disclosure policy"?

@user5136121, that's correct, we don't do that on our live site.

@krisrodriguez Alright, then. I'll tell you when I see anything similar to what we just saw.

Sounds good. Thanks @user5136121.

Hi @krisrodriguez

Here's a similar question.

I moderated it as Archived not Answerable but I may have been wrong.

Cheers
