May 2017 update: I will say that I find Wikipedia borderline prejudiced and somewhat racist in the edits of material on this site. I have seen suspect pages related to MTV sit pristine for almost a decade, the subjects of some I don't really know about because I wasn't a fan of the channel. Yet, the articles I have created for BET topics have been routinely edited to the extent where the article itself doesn't have the intended impact. Two articles have even been deleted (one for a notable, decade-long host of BET; another for the show Screen Scene). Here lately, the pictures for the articles are being removed, when there are screenshots on MTV's article that haven't been touched. Since this is a freely edited site, there doesn't seem to be an authority to which to complain.
