Today I edited a few articles on Eugene F. Lally's Wikipedia page. This article had been violated by a Wiki 'Author'. What was left was an insult to Lally's work and life and a disgrace to Wikipedia itself. The person who violated the article relied entirely on what he could cobble together from the few pages on Google he had access to. He also questioned the fact that Mr. Lally was an inventor simply because he could not find Mr. Lally's name on a patent. Go figure. The explanation he wrote as to why he violated this article sounds entirely like the testimony of person who disliked Mr. Lally as a person. Since he wasn't lucky enough to have known Mr. Lally it is a mystery to me why he openly discredits him so much.

If this is the way Wikipedia artciles should be handled in the future, we should completely reconsider Wikipedia's intentions. There should be a big banner on the frontpage that says "if you can't backup each and every sentence in each and every article then it's not true/don't bother posting it". At least this is the way the violating 'Author' treated Mr. Lally's Wikipedia entry. In my opinion he should be banned from Wikipedia entirely.
