Was just checking out the Wikipedia entry for David Williamson's "Up for Grabs". Whoever wrote the entry quotes and links to my post on this site a few years ago. Sorry... just had to share... Its just like when I once described someone as being so far in the closet they may as well be in Narnia. Only to find out many years later that it is now a common saying in the US... The question is did I create this or was it a case of many people making an obvious link I will never know... :-)

You should check their

You should check their 'history' page (each Wiki article has a tab that allows you to see the history of what was written when and by who, on that particular article). Maybe that will help Otherwise, you should check their various pages about the 'validity' and accuracy of their information. I personally recommend Citizendium, which is an 'offshoot' of Wikipedia - it's set up by one of wiki's founders - because it contains info much more reliable. They also import and clean up many of the wiki articles, so it would be interesting to see if they have a similar article, and if it is the same as wiki's. The truth may be somewhere in the middle of the two.
