[Wikimediaindia-l] Vandalism in Wikipedia
Recently I came across the problem of vandalism in one of the articles to which I am a contributor. Dr.Narisetty Innaiah, 75 years old is a famous rationalist and atheist from India and currently living in USA. He is author of several books on M.N.Roy’s philosophy in Telugu.He is also translator of the books ‘A Letter to Christian Nation’ and ‘God Delusions’ written by Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins respectively into Telugu. Mr.Innaiah presented these translations to the original authors at a function held in USA. A video of the event can be seen at the following link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGTN1Mj7hV8blend=8lr=1ob=5 More details about Innaiah can be found at http://innaiahn.tripod.com/hr.html Now let us have a look into the Wikipedia article about Mr Innaiah at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Innaiah_Narisetti In the current version of the article, a pervert contributor Mr.Steeldrumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Steeldrumaction=editredlink=1distorted the facts in the article and presents Mr Innaiah not only as a staunch believer of Christianity but also a canvasser of Christianism. I have corrected these blunders on 28th April 2012 but Steeldrumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Steeldrumaction=editredlink=1reverted back to his old dirty practice of distortion and vandalism of the article about Innaiah on 2nd May 2012. Rationalists from USA besides Mr Innaiah brought to my notice about this heinous act of Mr.Steeldrumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Steeldrumaction=editredlink=1, who is doing this repeatedly. These vicious writings of Mr.Steeldrum ahttp://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Steeldrumaction=editredlink=1re bringing bad reputation to Wikipedia.There is a need to put an urgent stop to these acts by Mr.Steeldrumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Steeldrumaction=editredlink=1. I request the seniors in the group to do the needful in the matter before Steeldrumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Steeldrumaction=editredlink=1spreads his tentacles in furthering his malicious acts. -Cbrao http://toolserver.org/~pathoschild/stalktoy/?target=Cbrao http://deeptidhaara.blogspot.com/ ___ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
