There is a little bit of a gap between what you say, and what CIPR say.

---o0o---

"Stevie Benton responded by calling the comments 'inaccurate'.

'I don't think it's cumbersome at all,' he said. 'It's quite
straightforward. It's not just PR professionals who need to abide by this,
it's everyone.'"

[...]

CIPR CEO Jane Wilson added: 'I recognise that it can be a frustrating
process for any organisation with inaccurate information on the site.

'Wikipedia is working on the speed and ease with which simple factual
inaccuracies can be amended without compromising the strong stance on
conflict. I look forward to the CIPR working with the community more
closely on this.'

---o0o---

You say everything is fine, and CIPR acknowledge it can be frustrating, and
that Wikipedia is working on it. ;)

I think in the long term, the latter position is the better one to take,
along with doing some real work on improving the customer experience as
much as it is possible within the constraints of a volunteer-run system.
