Wikipedia Editing Scandal Continues

Who is “Philip Cross” the notorious Wikipedia editor who has made so many people’s lives a misery over the past fifteen years due to his relentless malicious editing of their pages and pages on which they are cited?

He’s the obsessive, at it night-and-day, 365-days a year Wikipedia editor and online stalker whose account is used to pursue personal and political vendettas, but who, despite great publicity in the spring of 2018 about his activities, which included articles in many media outlets and a BBC World Service radio documentary, is still persecuting people – (or allowing people to be persecuted from his account), on a daily basis.

At the time of writing the Philip Cross account had made a staggering 159,607 Wikipedia edits in a fifteen-year period. Incredibly the Cross account did not take a single day off from editing Wikipedia from 29th August 2013 to 14th May 2018. Not even on five consecutive Christmas Days (note that well). Anti-war activists are a regular target.

despite all the complaints Wikipedia still allows Cross to edit and whose founder Jimmy Wales arrogantly dismissed victims’ concerns about editing as “so wrong as to be risible”.
