If it's the case here that BH can remove whatever he likes no matter how innocuous it is, then I suppose it doesn't matter, but still seems a little pointless to add things that are inaccurate.
my thoughts on the matter are it's pretty much chalk and cheese.
He has done something extremely scummy, I don't think that's in question right?
A simple change from
"Multi accounting is considered the lowest form of cheating in high stakes online poker and he has now rightly been shunned and will forever be known as a cheat."
to
Multi accounting is considered
one of the lowest form of cheating in high stakes online poker and he
has seemingly been shunned and
labelled by many as a cheat."
Would be entirely feasible.
I agree the whole tone is not correct for an "encyclopedia" and too personal but that didn't seem to be his point - it was more that MA'ing wasn't the worst possible way to cheat.
I think it's still the same overall message it's basically arguing semantics over which was worse (I agree superusing is).
I also was seemingly unaware that it could be removed by Brian and adapted as he saw fit. I thought wikipedia worked as in something was added and evidence supplied by way of article / webpage etc to support entered text. I was under the belief that if the text was supported it would stay as its supposed to be a reflection on that topic not their personal autobiography.
Unfortunately it seems I was wrong?
