Wikipedia Bans Church of Scientology

Posted by timothy on from the there's-no-pleasing-some-people dept.

El Reg writes "Showing a new-found resolve to crack down on self-serving edits, Wikipedia has banned contributions from all IP addresses owned or operated by the Church of Scientology. According to Wikipedia administrators, this marks the first time such a high-profile organization has been banished for allegedly pushing its own agenda on the 'free encyclopedia anyone can edit.'"

    Again, I get the joke. But it's wrong. The CoS can no longer edit registered or anonymous.

    Self delusion (religion) is never healthy.
