"The Wikipedia Blues" Options

[EricBarbour]

Yet another expert in an obscure field (alternative music keyboards) has fallen afoul of Wiki-Crazy-Time.

The Wikipedia Blues by Ken Rushton.

The Jim Plamondon BLP was tagged by that lovely sweet creature, Fram. Even though references abound.

The Peter Davies article will be more difficult, admittedly. Even though Davies is famous in the UK for his custom guitar work, he's not Googly enough for Kool-Aiders.

I've already told Ken that he's not alone, but that the only way to save those articles is to involve the even-crazier ARS. Feel free to send Ken your commiserations.

so are you saying its good or bad that his articles were hacked away at? sounds like his primary purpose was to use wikipedia to post "original research" as the lingo goes. i mean, he bemoans not being able to cite his own blog on wikipedia.

that being said, its quite common for articles on actually notable subjects to get prodded and/or sent to AfD because the nom. doesn't know what he doesn't know, and doesn't care to know.

The truth is Wikipedia is a lawless domain, and with out the means to regulate itself in any fundamental way. Wikipedia, instead is the home of pedophiles, social misfits and other petty power drunk sociopaths - a wild west of roving gangs of basement dwelling cretins, like your self.

What wikipedia is, is a cesspool of misinformation.

Yes. Full stop.
