You too, huh? A few weeks ago I corrected a major factual error and
added some additional factual data to a Wikipedia article (not
computer related). My edits were based on first hand knowledge from 24
years ago. Everything I entered was removed and the incorrect data was
reinstated. When I emailed Wikipedia to ask about it, I was told that
first hand knowledge was not wanted, only something that I could site
from someone else. If you ask me, that seems rather stupid.
