George W. Bush on Wikipedia...WTF?

Post by KingManULTRA »

Go here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/

Type in:

george w. bush

What do you see? Hacked site?

EDIT: It's gone now. Doesn't wikipedia have ways to protect against sites on the page from being changed completely?

On what was on there before: Bush. Get it?

Wikipedia sites are often vandalized. However they have a large team of volunteers that find vandalized entries or are alerted to them. Most don't last very long and are recreated. One has to wonder if the gwb one should stay this way or not though.
