Grow up Ron, Wikipedia is only run by a handful of people and is the fifth biggest information site in the world, obviously they cannot check every page all the time (there are millions of pages) This kind of thing happens every day and they are placed on by mindless idiots! If you win your claim you could shut down this very informative site and ruin it for the millions of genuine people that use it! Dudeabides.
