Link Kicksecure ™ for KVM with Xfce is deprecated. That would be Kicksecure ™ for KVM with Xfce now, waiting to be populated.
Hopefully I’ll get to it soon. Any idea what a common graphics intensive program I can use to benchmark?
Not sure what exactly you are referring to but I do see my name in the diff. I don’t remember making those changes however.
Careful with these changes. Could be malicious Specifically if by anonymous.

Nonsense edit.
You’ll need to log into your Whonix-Gateway once and run
Really required? That would be a bug.

Hm so someone impersonated you? Do you have a wiki account registered?
Yes, I do: Login required - Whonix
I think someone just wrote my first name, but actually, if I am reading the diff correctly, that edit comes from an unregistered user.

Indeed. Not by you. No question about it.

Correct.
Someone wrote your name into the edit text area. Either by mistake or trolling. It makes no sense.

Correct.
Hm so someone impersonated you?
No.
As seen in the diff it was an anonymous edit.

So you made the edit? What was this for?
So you made the edit?
No.
What was this for?
It was a malicious / nonsense / trolling edit.
This is important.
Could you please re-read from here, follow all links? [Help Welcome] KVM Development - staying the course - #468 by Patrick
There has been a malicious / nonsense / trolling edit. These two:
It’s a breach of wiki review security. The impact is tiny. That edit should have never gone public. You shouldn’t have confirmed that edit. Should have been rejected. If not completely understood, please either ask and/or reject.
Also that edit is yet to be reverted.
So you made the edit?
Makes no sense to ask who made what edit as it can be seen in the wiki history. Link to wiki history:
Permission error - Whonix
In the wiki history link https://www.whonix.org/w/index.php?title=KVM&action=history…
There every wiki version can be compared with every wiki version and it will show exactly what was changed (added text, removed text, edited text) as well as show which wiki account made the edit if any. Otherwise
Example wiki diff (these are easily accessible from the wiki history):
https://www.whonix.org/w/index.php?title=KVM&type=revision&diff=83136&oldid=82487
On that link…
Take special note to:
Top left, base revision to compare:
Edit by 127.0.0.1 - localhost (because the server doesn’t store IPs). = anonymous edit, no wiki account.
Top right, target revision to compare:
Contains your user name.
As for the first malicious wiki edit:
https://www.whonix.org/w/index.php?title=KVM&type=revision&diff=82455&oldid=82310)
Left top side, previous version by 127.0.0.1 (no wiki account, anonymous). (That’s just the last edit that was accepted. Not necessarily an issue.)
Right top side, changed version also by 127.0.0.1.
So 100% confirmed it was a anonymous edit.
Makes no sense to ask who made what edit as it can be seen in the wiki history. Link to wiki history:

Sometimes I make edits when I’m too lazy to sign in, that’s why I assumed that’s what happened here. Thought it was coming from a trusted source.There’s no excuse for this lapse though and it’s the first time I encounter this.
Keep or discard? Can this have security consequences?

Great that this is resolved now.
Keep or discard?
I guess the user who posted Initial setup Whonix-Gateway might have added this trying to be helpful.
Discard if not reproducible.
Can this have security consequences?
No security issue.
