Man can't get himself deleted from Wikipedia

A GEEZER who argued strongly for deletion from Wikipedia can't get himself removed.

Seth Finkelstein, writing in today's Guardian , said that his biography was vandalised on Wikipedia and subsequently propagated on sites carrying W-content.

Someone proposed Seth was not notable enough to be included on Wikipedia in July and he agreed and argued strongly he should go.

But that cut no ice and the article is still there. As Finkelstein points out, active Wikipedians "want the prestige and imputed influence which comes from such intellectual endeavours". µ
