FR Wikipedia entry
12/25/13 | Awestruck

Posted on 12/25/2013 1:01:05 PM PST by Awestruck

Am I the only one to notice that most of the Wikipedia entry about FR is one big hit piece? Or does it not matter because it is editable? Don't meant to be dense...just curious.

I can’t recall what the specific issue was then, but a Wikipedia “editor” was “lording over” the article and blocking changes. There are “editors” who “lord over” other stories too, including one who watches over Texas Tech University.

Don't worry about it, none of us care if you have a spread, you know when have gotten to them when they sign on FR to insult you. Then again you could have the Hartford Courrant write a hit piece about you or the Boston Globe, me and RaceBannon.

Some of you are real-life activists. I’m just a humble suburban breeder. And a size 4, if anyone really wants to know.

Maybe they just spelled your name wrong and the search function didn’t recognize it.

Merry Christmas to you, too. We’re about to eat supper. There’s a powerful smell of horseradish coming from the kitchen.

Actually the thread about Malia was never restored. It was posted again and removed again.

FR has had lefty's try to frame it several times. They've always failed.

Oh and Jim Robinson never said he was voting for Romney. You’ll notice that wiki’s link is to TBL and not FR.

Maybe... but I only found me once ...

I'm deeply saddened, of course. Just have to try harder.. ;-)

That one should be easy to get cleared up. Just get the quote from Jim Robinson that he did not vote for Romney, then go to the Wikipedia page, change that statement and reference it with the quote from Jim Robinson.

Remember, those things don’t get corrected unless someone actually “does the footwork” on it.
