People are changing other submissions based on their own whims and preferences.

For the move THE BLUFF I had given the following information as trivia,

"The inscription of Mary's original name shown on Captain Connors body as well as Mary's journal is Malayalam, the official language of the State of Kerala, India. And Priyanka Chopra's maternal grandmother Mary John (later converted to Hindu as Mrs. Akhouri) was the native of Kerala. The inscription is pronounced as MAHR-ee-ahm or muh-REE-am." (Reference 260225-194002-543000)

Now, someone has completely edited it and rewritten it as

"The inscription of Mary's original name, seen on Captain Connors' body and in her journal, appears in Malayalam, the official language of Kerala, India. Priyanka Chopra Jonas has maternal roots in Kerala, adding an interesting cultural parallel. The name is pronounced roughly "Mah-ree-am." 

Whoever did it completely change the meaning, context, and pronunciation.

I might have understood editing it out if it had been truly offensive, but this is unacceptable and a serious violation of trust and freedom of expression.

I hope the moderator will be more vigilant in the future.

So, please consider this issue.
