In all the kerfuffle over alleged Prime Ministerial adjustments to the normally impeccable e-record that is Wikipedia, we shouldn’t forget the little people, for Wikipedia is not the exclusive preserve of the good and the great.   Yes, Tim Blair has an entry too.

The changes involved, among other ephemera, unflattering references to c-lonic irrigation. Ten minutes later they were gone, and the un-irrigated record had returned.   Such attention to detail, and all of it carried out at arm’s length. We alerted Tim to the goings on under his name: ”I have no idea what this means, but it sounds like I should be relieved,” he said.
