Most people by now realize just what sort of place "Wikipedia" is on the web but there are deeper issues left unexplored. What many might not know is how "Wikipedia" selectively censors contributors to their website with the help of free speech violators. These violators will censor or speedily delete your articles simply because they don't agree with the content and if you dare to protest, they threaten to ban you from contributing in the future. In addition, they will censor out any valid edits you make to other articles on their website if they don't agree with your statements.

They make false claims that you are in violation of their so-called "rules" and when you speak out in protest, more threats from them follow. The top offenders of these acts go by the user names: C.Fred, Largo Plazo, and 220 of Borg. A friend of mine for example attempted to write an article about me at my request and the "Wikipedia" gestapo were right there to interfere with it. He protested against their unjust actions and they deleted the article quick as a flash. Then, they made false claims that there wasn't enough "reliable sources" to corroborate certain statements within the original article when in fact there WAS sufficient sources noted by the author.

The reason I wanted a "Wikipedia" page of my own is because I felt it was necessary to put something out there which would be in contrast to libelous statements a stalker has made against me. I wrote my first report here about this stalker who's name is Dennis. Unfortunately, the "Wikipedia" gestapo decided to support and protect my stalker rather than permit my friend to submit something that would shed a positive light on me. It has become abundantly clear they would rather support a criminal instead of allowing an article submission that would essentially help to repair an innocent victim's reputation. It is also apparent they care nothing for the decent contributions of others outside their little circle and only THEIR words are good enough for publication on the website.

Regardless of how many valid points you make or concrete facts you have, the "Wikipedia" censors will prohibit an opposing point of view whenever they feel like it simply because they assume they can. To make matters worse, they will bend the rules for certain people they favor while others whom are unfavored are forced to toe the line. For example, they have a policy against people writing articles about themselves because it supposedly is a "conflict of interest" but someone like my stalker who HAS created an article about himself is exempt from this rule. I guess this just goes to prove that money talks regardless of who you are.

#2Consumer Suggestion

Hello fellow person who was abused by Wikipedia. I have experienced the bullies at Wikipedia that will let ANYTHING on their website whether or not it violates their policies. They will not remove the information unless it disturbs them. They will accuse the editors that updated the articles of violating the policies, per relevant Essay Of Style. I check the Essay Of Style, and discover that THE ESSAY OF STYLE ACTUALLY SUPPORTS MY EDITS AND NOT THEIR REVERTS. I did not even get a chance to add any information to the talk page also known as discussion page. I am personally attacked by various bullies with administrative privilages at Wikipedia and quite rapidly and they accuse me of adding information that sounds "promotional" while the article itself is promotional and what I did was add encyclopedic information. This means that WIKIPEDIA IS A SPECIAL INTEREST GROUP AND NOT AN ENCYCLOPEDIA. I have encountered cyberbullying, harrassment, and while attempting to report these people, everybody else retaliates by banning ME. And I do not have the ability to even delete my account. Legal Action is justified.

I encourage EVERYBODY to NOT GIVE THEM ANY RESOURCES. Do not edit any of their articles. Do not create new articles. AND WHEN THEY ASK FOR MONEY YEAR AFTER YEAR, GIVE THEM ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

 

However, just because you feel the need to have your own article on Wikipedia DOES NOT MEAN YOU GET TO HAVE YOUR OWN ARTICLE! And to defend your repuation is certainly not a valid reason!! You have a right to defend your reputation if somebody defames you. I am not sure if somebody has actually defamed you or if you did something to them and ripped them off. I don't know. I don't care. It is none of my business. But the point is that Wikipedia is not the place to build or rebuild or defend your reputation. I don't know nor care if the person has an article against you because it is none of my business. Even if they made an article about you on Wikipedia, it sounds like you wanted to have your own article. Why do you even want to have an article on that horrible website anyways?! The fewer amount of Wikipedia articles, the better.

 

DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY MORE INFORMATION AND ESPECIALLY DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY MONEY.

I DO Have Rights! Wikipedia Was Wrong!

 This is in response to the previous rebuttal. I DO in fact have rights as a HUMAN BEING and NOBODY has the right to violate another person's free speech by twisting the Constitution around to suit their own needs! Furthermore, I don't appreciate the insensitive remarks regarding my stalker's illegal and harmful activities! I highly doubt if this was happening to the previous rebuttal author, he/she wouldn't take such a lax stance. What it all boils down to is, "Wikipedia" was WRONG and they have treated other innocent people with the same disrespect as they did ME! Going offline is NOT the answer because libel remains online indefinitely which can effect a person's life outside of the web. Clearly, the person who left the previous rebuttal doesn't get it. It's not as easy as simply getting offline and finding other things to do. If it were that easy, I would have done it years ago! My stalker made me a public spectacle and "Wikipedia" denied me equal rights to free speech. It does make me feel considerably better knowing I am not their only victim but at the same time, I do not wish to see any others go through this. That is the purpose for my report. It's about time "Wikipedia" was exposed for these biased activities.

Rights??

 Exactly who do you think you are to expect "rights" online? Its their site and if they chose to not have you as a contributor, that is THEIR right as the owners. Also you are expecting "fair" treatment from a site that is owned and run by HUMANS!! Not robots. This means they bring their own baggage to each and every thing they do. Be it online or in the real world. And really what do you care what some nutjob says about you? Cyberstalking is ONLY effective IF you allow it to get to you.

Thats like complaining because you get wet while sitting in the front row of a sea world show. Kinda silly when you think that YOU went there and YOU sat in the front row. Just stop going to the websites that this "stalker" visits. The web is a huge domain with many many many sites on it. Change your email and move on. If you still feel that your cyberstalker is a threat, then go to your local police. If they stalker is not doing ANYTHING to you other then harrasing you online, well thats simple to. STOP GOING ONLINE FOR AWHILE!! You can live without the web. It is possible. Lots of ppl do it.

Cyberstalkers are always looking to get a rise out of you. If you dont give it to them then they have no ammo. Eventually they will get bored with trying to get under your skin and move on to their next victim. As for Wiki, just stop going on it. Youre letting what is in essence brightly lit words on a screen affect your REAL LIFE! Disassociate yourself from the web. Find ANYTHING else to do besides going online. Go visit REAL PEOPLE. Go to a REAL park. Go to a MOVIE!! DO NOT VISIT THE WEB!! Take a break and you will probably find that the real world is still there and still has a lot to offer you in terms of entertainment.

My favorite pastime is hitting the library and seeing if theres a new book out from one of the authors I enjoy reading.
