Drive-by tagging

A series of IPs (probably just sock puppets of one editor) keep adding drive-by tags to this article. A lot of good work has gone into this article over many years: it is well referenced and pretty comprehensive in the context of the specialist nature of the product. The perpetrator of the drive-by tagging has made no attempt to improve the article or to specify exactly how, in his / her view, it needs improving. I think we are getting to the point that the article needs protection. Views welcome. Dormskirk (talk) 22:50, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

I agree. Normal drive-by tagging is quite bad enough, but repeated placement of tags like this, without any willingness to engage by improving the article or discuss on talk, is unusual and undoubtedly disruptive. William Avery (talk) 23:36, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
