Wikipedia and Wikipedia Scanner
An American student has developed something he’s called “Wikipedia Scanner” which reveals who has changed Wikipedia entries. Quite dull you may think, but its shown that:
- Apple have edited Micrsoft’s Wikipedia entry adding more negative comments.
- Amnesty International have removed negative comments from their entry.
- Coca Cola removed comments on the negative effects of its drinks.
- MSN Search added “is a serious competitor to Google” to its own page.
and there are many more. Read the BBC news story or visit the official Wikipedia Scanner website for more info.
