What is going on with the tagging of edits in the article history?

I added sourced information to the article about Murray and the sex abuse scandal: "and described his actions - or lack of - as "inexcusable". (The reference was given as http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8417507.stm "Irish bishop Donal Murray resigns over abuse report") and see on the history section that next to my edit is "(Tag: possible BLP issue or vandalism)". What is going on here? Who has tagged my edit? More importantly - why? It is a perfectly good edit, cited to the BBC website article. Are edits that are critical of Murray being tagged thus? Is it an attempt to stifle valid editing? I resent the tagging and want it removed. 81.156.126.212 (talk) 16:17, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The tag was added automatically by the Wiki software that uses a variety of word, pattern matching and other techniques to flag edits that may require attention. Negative comments (even if well sourced) from unregistered users in any biographical articles will often cause this tag to appear. It does not represent a systematic attempt to protect the article by an individual or an attempt to prevent you editing. See Wikipedia:Tags to find out more.

Donal Murray (bishop) → Donal Murray – WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. PPEMES (talk) 13:43, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Over a long enough time period, the bishop clearly predominates. The bishop is also likely the more historically significant subject, given his length of service. bd2412 T 01:34, 6 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Recentism, as the hurler had his heydays long ago (pre-internet era). The Banner talk 07:38, 6 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Why does it matter when the hurler had his heyday? No matter when he lived, he's still just a hurler. It would be a very rare circumstance for any hurler to be more notable than any bishop, and pageviews reflect the interest that people have in both subjects now. bd2412 T 21:52, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - "just a hurler"?? The Banner talk 06:51, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom and reject the above notion of "recentism"; the clergyman is older than the hurler and was also clearly notable in the pre-internet era. Pageviews over an extended period show that this is the most sought after topic, and with only two articles the dab page is clearly redundant. PC78 (talk) 11:06, 6 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support per BD and PC. Calidum 04:16, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
