Censored Wikipedia Articles Appear On Protest Site

Gregory Rider writes "According to a recent article in The Guardian, a group of disenchanted Wikipedia administrators has been going through back channels on Wikipedia and retrieving articles deleted by Jimbo Wales or other higher-ups. Now they're putting them back up on a website for everyone to see. This includes articles on Justin Berry, Paul Barresi, and, most strangely, Brian Peppers, which has been solicited for deletion off of Wikipedia 6 times with mixed success and is now banned from being edited on for a whole year."

Is Wikitruth supposed to be an oxymoron?

If that Seigenthaler dude hadn't assasinated Kennedy, our world would be a very different place.

Brian Peppers article

Thank God the Brian Peppers article is now available. I don't know how I could have lived for another minute without being able to read about him. Damn those Wikipedia editors for deleting this article about the most famous Brian Peppers, whom I hear about every day, and simply live for to hear about. Famous people like Brian Peppers NEED to have their own Wikipedia articles, don't you see? It's a requirement.

Could somebody explain to me why I should care about this "issue"?

Wikitruth.info will be deleted

Personally, I think the best part is how Wikipedia has aimed to delete , on grounds of notability, of course, any references to this group of rogue administrators.

Every man and his dog on YTMND knows about Peppers because he was a massive fad.

Yeah, but who the hell knows what "YTMND" is?!! Heck, I had to look it up on Wikipedia!
