Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 19:26, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
Obviously, the IP editor wants information pertaining to the alleged rapist added to the article. So the IP editor will work on that, and come back with specific changes, and then we'll have to tell him/her at that point that there is no concensus for adding material pertaining to the rape allegations at this time. So we may as well say it now cut to the chase and say, "There is no concensus for adding material pertaining to the rape allegations at this time." Marteau (talk) 19:38, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

In response to various investigative reports questioning the veracity of the book’s claim she was raped at Oberlin College while a student there by the leading republican on campus named Barry, Random House told TheWrap that the publisher had offered to pay Barry’s legal fees saying, “The name ‘Barry’ referenced in the book is a pseudonym. Random House, on our own behalf and on behalf of our author, regrets the confusion.” [1] 206.83.205.80 (talk) 16:14, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

I have unprotected the article. You have a very short time before the vandals turn up to change her occupation and the page will have to be locked again. As they will continue to turn up and change her occupation, whether we have decent coverage or not, this page will be locked for a long time. -- zzuuzz (talk) 17:23, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

The issue regarding the alleged false rape has now reached NPR coverage - http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2014/12/09/369600711/book-news-random-house-promises-changes-to-lena-dunham-book 64.134.56.129 (talk) 17:07, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

You're supposed to propose some text for the article. The page is now unprotected: have at it. -- zzuuzz (talk) 17:24, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

I recently reverted an edit by 174.97.56.49 because it was a word-for-word copy-paste from http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/publisher-alter-lena-dunham-book-755193 and have warned the user on their talk page. It was not due to the content, per se. I simply selected the wrong revert tool which did not give me the option of entering the reason and wanted to make the reason clear here.
