An inquiry was launched after staff for Democratic representative Marty Meehan admitted polishing his biography [and'] computers traced to Capitol Hill removed unpalatable facts from articles on senators, while other entries were "vandalised", the site said.

 

Wikipedia is a great site, but this kind of thing is the only possible fault.

I wouldn't be surprised if politicians soon started to hire people whose only purpose would be to monitor and nudge their wiki articles, or even entries about policies and such that might concern them.
