Wikipedia isn't the only large site that finds it hard to keep on eye on all the content. I'm thinking of Sparknotes messageboards just because I know them a little.
People would have a hard time in court having wikipedia done for 'libel' or something for this. The most they could be done for is a sort of negligence. In reality- email a site's legal team or post to the administrators, and any incontrovertible 'libel' would be removed.
But negative coverage in real newspapers shouldn't be removed, or all the BLP articles would be fluff pieces.
