 * "Vandalism is a fact of life at Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Administrators like Spacemanspiff are senior editors who, over the years, have been entrusted by the Wikipedia community to protect, delete or restore pages, and even block notorious editors."
 * "Abel also contends with anonymous, ad hominem attacks online. One of his colleagues, Whitney Gabriel, said she 'cringes' when she sees pages like Abel's Wikipedia entry, which refers to him as a 'controversial clinician'. She has tried to get the entry taken down, but a Wikipedia editor refused, noting that the claim seemed 'sufficiently sourced'. (It cites a clinical handbook that briefly summarizes some conflicting opinions on the test's usefulness.)"
 * [NB. in fact the archives show that the article on the Great Black Britons website (June 2004) pre-dates the Wikipedia article (March 2007) by more than two years]
