Wikipedia Editing
Smith was among 32 Congressmen who have favourably edited their own Wikipedia entries. Smith admitted that “defending himself and his record against false attacks was the main reason for the edits, and that the edits were made on just three occasions and unrelated to any re-election effort.” Smith's communications directors confirmed that they had made “several changes” and claim ignorance about Wikipedia guidelines and possible conflicts of interests.

Famous quotes containing the word editing:
“In this century the writer has carried on a conversation with madness. We might almost say of the twentieth-century writer that he aspires to madness. Some have made it, of course, and they hold special places in our regard. To a writer, madness is a final distillation of self, a final editing down. It’s the drowning out of false voices.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
