One such editor contributed to other articles, including Jeanne Marie Spicuzza, which had existed on Wikipedia for two years. After being voted down by these editors, Griot solicited a user named Calton, who had previously posted snarky comments to the Spicuzza entry and most likely a significant factor in his choosing this user, to campaign that specific articles that this unidentified user contributed to, like as Jeanne Marie Spicuzza and Matt Cook, be deleted. Griot has since been blocked for various violations and disruptions. He and Calton continue their libelous and vengeful online assault against Jeanne Marie Spicuzza and Mary Spicuzza.<BR/><BR/>According to SF Weekly Managing Editor Will Harper and award-winning journalist Mary Spicuzza, Mary Spicuzza gave her notice to join a documentary production house on February 1, before the article appeared. <BR/><BR/>According to writer Jeanne Marie Spicuzza, she neither contributes to Wikipedia nor uses it as a source, and has supplied her attorney with these facts.<BR/><BR/>The previous poster is incorrect, or deliberately libelous.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4999686744433629981.post-50987162118720237812008-02-27T06:13:00.000-08:002008-02-27T06:13:00.000-08:00hello, just read your word about wiki:http://www.s...hello, just read your word about wiki:<BR/>http://www.slate.com/default.aspx?id=2184487Pen Wonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10013611858893708900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4999686744433629981.post-34487802514789117582008-02-26T07:43:00.000-08:002008-02-26T07:43:00.000-08:00The reporter indeed was reporting on something per...The reporter indeed was reporting on something personal but, given that, and whatever personal motivations were behind it, the story reveals the difficulty of discerning "credibility", "reputation", motivation etc in the public sphere. This isn't just a problem for Wikipedia. For instance, journals like Science and Nature have quite a few rules about disclosure of vested interests for authors, because those things are very difficult to discover even in face-to-face interaction.<BR/><BR/>Wikipedia is in part an experiment in the machinery or architecture of aggregating nuggets of knowledge, but it is equally an experiment in the architecture of credibility or the mechanics of insuring that the nuggets are justified. It's an open question as to if or how Wikipedia's policies and administration can be impoved through technological means.Peter Pirollihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12597298570241393673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4999686744433629981.post-6895016074767921492008-02-21T14:01:00.000-08:002008-02-21T14:01:00.000-08:00anonymous:On the one hand, I think it is useful fo...anonymous:<BR/><BR/>On the one hand, I think it is useful for general public to understand more about social dynamics that happens in Wikipedia, and the dispute resolution methods that are currently employed to arrive at the canonical content that should be displayed to readers.<BR/><BR/>On the other, I can see why it would be upsetting to some for Mary to take the disputes outside of normal Wikipedia processes and publicize it.<BR/><BR/>I'm a big believer in social transparency, which says that more transparency would result in greater credibility for the authors and trust in the content.
