HuckaWiki hijacked: "Mike Huckabee (THE IDIOT)"

Yesterday I posted about Mike Huckabee's commuting the suspected Washington shooter's sentence some years ago. That report was damaging enough on its own, but some Wikipedia readers took the information and performed the written equivalent of TPing Huck's Wiki page:

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee's Wikipedia page has been edited to include hostile remarks about his commutation of an individual suspected in the fatal shooting of four police officers. [...]

"WILL FOREVER BE KNOWN AS THE IDIOT WHO RELEASED THE COP KILLER MAURICE CLEMMONS HE WAS SERVING A 35 YEAR SENTENCE FOR ARMED ROBBERY THE IDIOT RELEASED HIM AFTER 9 YEARS," reads the addition made by an unknown user.

The user, or users, also added "THE IDIOT" to Huckabee's photo caption.

It's one thing to opine about Huckabee's judgment (or lack thereof). It's quite another to be childish enough to deface Wikipedia like a giggling eighth grader sneaking around behind Mom and Dad's back. Grow up, Wiki users.

By GottaLaff

Wevewend Wiki Warren and fwiends have been banned:

Pastor Rick™ Warren's employees and buddies have been banned for three months from Wikipedia and his Wikipedia page has been locked to prevent further edits after continued attempts to whitewash his Proposition 8 opposition.

This protection is not an endorsement of the current version. See the protection policy and protection log for more details. Please discuss any changes on the talk page; you may use the {{editprotected}} template to ask an administrator to make the edit if it is supported by consensus.

[...] Losing control of his public image has to be a nightmare for The Publicity-Driven Pastor. Worse yet, his buddies can no longer post anywhere on Wikipedia!

After weeks of voluminous and sometimes heated debate, it was uncovered that CarverM is in fact Mark Carver, the International Director of Purpose Driven Ministries.

Unfortunately for Mr. Carver, Wikipedia has a strong policy in regards conflict of interest. Once it was learned he is one of Warren's closest buddies, he was banned from the discussion for three months, along with another Warren Wikipedia Whitewasher who inadvertently revealed he was a member of Saddleback Church.

There is no way to ascertain if the remaining Warren Wikipedia Whitewashers are also closely linked to Warren, because although Wikipedia forbids conflict of interest, they also protect the anonymity of their editors (???).

The “discussion” has been sent to “Wikipedia mediation” in which experienced editors attempt to get the parties to settle on language acceptable to both sides. So far, the mediation has been an abject failure with the remaining Warren Wikipedia Whitewashers attempting to block inclusion of Warren controversies at every turn.

Wev Wiki's whitewashing wesulted in warranted wecourse.

Much more here.

UPDATE: Here are his conflicting Prop 8 videos.
