And that beats my argument how? Lucius planted  Voldemort's old diary
because he wanted stir trouble in Hogwarts, yes. But  his reasons had
nothing to do with Voldemort.

Lynda:

Ah! But  I disagree with that reading of the text and think that Lucius knew
that  the diary was the key to opening the CoS which he knew had everything
to do  with Voldemort. Not only did that advance Lucius personal ambitions,
but it  had everything to do with Voldemort and Lucius Malfoy knew  it.


AnnR: 
I'm sure from memory that Lucius Malfoy put the diary into Ginny's bag to  
discredit Arthur Weasley via his daughter - to cause trouble for Arthur.   
Dumbledore said that he thought Voldemort would not be pleased to lose one of  his 
horcruxes and that Lucius should have took better care of his old school  
things.  But also it helped Voldemort by opening the COS by helping the  basillisk 
to kill the 'mudbloods' and the fact that TR changed track and went  after 
Harry instead.  what do you think?
