All,

  As I have been saying for over a year now, Wikipedia as a
sourced or accurate reference is a fool and is demonstrating
poor judgment.  Yet it is far too often considered such.  Always,
always, always check other reference sources against anything
you look up on Wikipedia.  Same applies to Google.

  Also dont be foolish enough to except Government, especially
USG databases to be accurate either.

selling') and how the criminals engaged a journalist to

distort Wikipedia to confuse the discourse. The article explicitly and
formally accuses a well-known US financial journalist, Gary Weiss, of 
lying about his efforts to distort a Wikipedia page under assumed 
names, and accuses the Powers That Be in Wikipedia (right up to and 
including Jimbo Wales) of complicity in protecting Weiss. This is not 
another story about a 15-year-old farm kid in Iowa pretending to be a 
professor. This is like the worst Chomskian view of Elites manipulating 
mass opinion. But it is all documented." We

discussed the alleged Wikipedia manipulation when The Register first
wrote about it last December. The submitter is the CEO of
Overstock.com and a major player in this drama from the beginning.
