(Is there a Wiki entry for "Bad Samaritan"? - promoted by Dean Barker)
Understandably, there has been an edit war on the Wikipedia over Frank Guinta's entry. It looks like the bar fight is going to be out of the article, although right now it is in. And the "pay for play" contriversy is also in there at the moment.
Most of the article is anodyne stuff about Guinta delivered tax relief, revitalized neighborhoods, won major awards, etc. and I suspect that's how it will remain right up until the moment he drops out of the Congressional race--- unless of course he stays in it and loses it.
An anonymous user from Manchester has made many edits, and I have no proof that it is Guinta himself. But whoever it is has a strong pro-Guinta bias. There is an interesting exchange on the Talk:Frank Guinta page. I made one contribution to it, but most of it is between the anonymous contributor and someone called "Moboshgu" whose profile identifies himself as "a participant in the Barack Obama Wikiproject"
From the wikipedia page Talk:Frank Guinta. Someone who is a Guinta supporter (at least) uses the Obama connection to drag Rev. Wright's name into the argument.
"Moboshgboshgu" says:
It's not political slander. It's reported by unbiased sources. If you remove it again, you will be reported based on WP:3RR. If you have constructive changes to suggest, suggest them. But the section stays. --Muboshgu (talk) 02:43, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
and this response came 17 minutes later:
Who died and made you ruler of wikipedia. You have a giantsection of your wiki profile saying you worked on teh Obama wikipedia. Well, it is common knowledge that wikipedia whon't allow anything about his involvement with Jeremiah Wright other other political slander because it is not appropriate for wikipedia. Well, this fits the same guidelines and this kind of garbage where the individual didn't even do anything is not appropriate for this wikipedia either. -Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.118.223.230 (talk) 03:00, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
plus it is pretty obvious that you have either multiple identies or you are using other people just to revert my edits. -Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.118.223.230 (talk) 03:04, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
All I can say is: "LOL." Evidently, in someone's mind, Obama's involevment with Rev. Wright justifies Guinta's negligence. There was no "giant" pro-Obama section of Mobushgo's profile, by the way: it was just a little widget.
