Fixing Wikipedia entries in your favor?  Read this article Diebold, Disney, Many Others Caught Editing Wikipedia Entries In Their Favor

This will probably come as a surprise to absolutely no one, but a new Wikipedia scanner service is matching the IP address of Wikipedia edits to the organizations the IPs are associated with — and it’s turning up some interesting matches. For example, there’s the person coming from a Diebold IP who deleted paragraphs and paragraphs of Wikipedia content that highlighted Diebold’s ongoing security problems. Then there’s the Disney employee who tried to pull a link to Cory Doctorow’s speech on why DRM is bad for business from the DRM entry.
