He who is without sin...

The media are getting quite interested in Wikipedia Scanner, a website that lists when companies edit articles about themselves, or just engage in vandalism on Wikipedia.

Interesting that the BBC article makes no mention of the BBC staffer changing George Bush's middle name from Walker to an obvious derogatory epithet, and The Guardian fails to note that one of their computers was used to edit the article on The Times to hide the higher circulation figures of Murdoch's rag...

I should at this point hold my hands up and admit that I have made edits to my employer's article. These were to add cites for the long-standing claim that the campus was pretty, and an award from The Times higher education supplement.
