MODERATORS
Streisand effect turned up to 11 ... Lehrmann's wikipedia page now opens with:
emphasis mine
Someone in the Brissy Discord mentioned they were surprised the page hadn't been locked. So I did some digging.
Turns out, the page has basically only existed since today. Up until then, it would just redirect you to the "2019 rape allegation by Brittany Higgins" section of the page "2021 Australian Parliament House sexual misconduct allegations". Today, the page was created for real, and has been edited by 9 users making a total of 20 edits. That opening has been altered to be a little more legally safe.
The sidebar still says "Known for: Rape at Parliament House" though.
And it seems they've clarified it even more now:
Still a banger of an opening line on one's wikipedia page!
Without going back in the history again and checking, I think that's the exact wording I saw when I said they changed it "to be more legally safe".
