wiki-abuse

293x431.jpg

We have been the recipients of abuse on Wikipedia.

Over four years now, our film Love & Suicide; shot on location in Havana, Cuba has been randomly edited, and abused. No doubt these hits came after Luis Moro, the filmmaker became outspoken about the embargo that has made no difference in 46 years.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_and_Suicide

Since then, our website has been up for deletion for many years, with back and forth discussions from myself and editors from around the world. We had to prove our validity, we had to readjust, and provide content that was perfect for wiki standards. Still, no change. Our status changes. The type of editing warnings change. But, no matter how I meet their standars, still no avail. Funny, how Andy Garcia’s movie (not really shot in Cuba), but told as coming from Cuba…never has been touched. I have requested that they put a block to anyone editing, and they did…but to my own P.C.

When will it end? Wiki needs to own their own standards and instead of turning on the writers, maybe being stricter on the public ‘editors’ will be more useful.
