PHILIPRISING Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 Wikipedia effectively offers free advertising, so the likes of the FIM and BSI could and should be using it to raise awareness of their competitions. The amount of stuff on speedway on Wikipedia is very poor, and whilst I have been tempted to write/re-write text myself, I simply don't have the interest in the sport that once did. I see some other people have ported some of my pre-Wikipedia stuff though, even though it's now largely out of date. I did write a number of articles related to my profession in the past, despite official hostility towards Wikipedia so I had to do it under a pseudonym. Eventually they did become a widely used reference and proved to be far more useful than anything that our so-called PR department managed. Yes, I've experienced that, and even worse had a page marked for deletion on the grounds of being 'unverified information'. Eventually after putting the page back a couple of times, the silly moderator or whoever gave up. AND what, pray, is your profession?
