The Register's article was authored by one Cade Metz. Any information on this person?
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/05/26/wi...ter_councillor/All I know is that as a source, El Reg is not considered reliable. As in, cannot be relied on to be completely clueless journalistic suckups to Jimbo.
How disappointing. I'm sure the NYT has much better and more informed coverage of Wikipedia than some little Bay Area rag.
What, they don't? (IMG:

Something's out of kilter with the universe then, as WP
assures me that sources like the NYT and Washington Post always do better at this sort of thing.
Oh, wait-- I forgot: WP is not itself a reliable source (RS) for this kind of thing. In fact, it says so, itself. Though, um, that also means it's not a reliable source for its own assertion that it's not a reliable source. (IMG:

This is making my noggin hurt.
