Wikipedia vs Congressional Staffers [Update]

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Monday January 30, 2006 @09:34AM from the waiting-for-an-arbitrary-smackdown dept.

There has been quite a bit of recent reporting on the recent troubles between Wikipedia and certain Congressional staffers. In response, abdulzis mentions that "an RFC, Wikipedia's mediation method to deal with 'disharmonious users', has been opened to take action against US Congressional staffers who repeatedly blank content and engage in revert wars and slanderous or libelous behavior which violates Wikiepdia code. The IP ranges of US Congress have been currently blocked, but only for a week until the issue can be addressed more directly."

To be fair to the parent poster, the summary, as originally posted, didn't have the link to the previous story. The story was edited and not marked as having been edited about 2 minutes after it went up (for non-subscribers).
