I had to look up 2 subjects on Wikipedia. The first one was a band that recently came through town. It appears all the information for their page was deleted, thus they no longer have a wikipedia page. Most of the reasons appear to be something along the lines of "doesn't indicate importance or significance", which makes me wonder...what information would be important or significant when talking about a band? Would little facts like, "Vic's real name is Zack" be considered unimportant? How about the fact that the drummer doesn't drink alcohol and prefers water when everyone else is taking rounds of shots? Who determines what's significant and what's not...What is the meaning of life? What am I doing here?
OH...yeah...Wiki's. haha!
The second subject was on a topic I knew was controversial. It was on a company that many call an MLM while others know it's a broker/dealer heavy on recruiting. There is a warning at the top of the page asking for input from others to make the page less like an advertisement. As for the history edits...there are some demanding that they repost that the company is an MLM and explanations as to why that section was removed. Very interesting!
