As much as I hate to admit it, I think I know who did this......

That's not my IP address in the logs, who is it?

Just a hunch, but I think it's one of the millions of people that view Wikipedia daily.

My old buddy, Al Gore phoned me at about 11 O'clock. He told me he was making some changes to the internet. I said, AL, you can't make changes to the internet, at least, without asking someone.

Screw you! He said. It's my internet, and I will do whatever I damn well choose, with it.
But, Al! What are you doing on the Wiki pages? If it weren't for me, there would be no Wiki pages. Now get lost...I have work to do.

IMHO, Why Wiki should be used to get a general overview rather than as a authoritative source.

If you know nothing about a subject, Wiki is a good starting place to help point you to a more authorative source. It gives you a general idea and helps to get your reaserach pointed in the direction that you may need to go. I think most people like mysef discover something in wiki that they would not have found on their own and then go cross refrence it somewhere else.

This is odd. I was looking at the sandbox earlier today, I went back to look at it again a few minutes ago and I see "You have been blocked from editing for posting potentially defamatory claims on Wikipedia..." blah blah blah.

I never edited or posted anything, the only thing I did was look at what other people posted.

Maybe someone edited it to say that.
