Old Man Murray Entry Deleted From Wikipedia

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i-miss-you-omm dept.

shoptroll writes "In what can be best described as an unfortunate interpretation of the 'notability standards' at Wikipedia, Rock, Paper, Shotgun reports that the entry for Old Man Murray, once a mainstay of PC Gaming reviews and commentary, has been deleted. A sad day for gaming journalism everywhere." This is notable both because Old Man Murray was completely and totally awesome, but also because it was notable and influential on countless writers.

    Weren't you the guy yesterday who tried to tell us that Slashdot is the Fox News of tech?

    If anything, John Dvorak is the Bill O'Reilly of the tech news world.

    Ha! No wonder he's so butt-hurt. What a dork. Looks like a fat lady you'd see at Wal-Mart. Apparently the guys at OMM made fun of him making whale-girl cry. Now he fights back deleting a Wiki page. Maybe the Army should try deleting Al Qaeda's webpage. That will make everything better.

    The Wiki page is gone but you're still a loser.

    And probably not the best thing to do if you don't like being made fun of.
