Anonymous and you

No, I am not talking about the hacker group Anonymous but the many Anonymous Key Board Warriors in front of the computer screen.

After the hit and run incident, Remy Ong's wiki article was under attack. Tried to clean up thinking it could be just some vandalism but it persists after a while. I requested for semi-protection and seems like some people pulled some strings and a few administrators come along to clean it up.

Once Anonymous could not operate, as registered accounts can be banned and anonymous IPs cannot edit, the article settles down. From the attacks, some are knowledgeable in editing wikis and hiding behind an IP address. Shame on you. Rant on the forums but do not attack a neutral place like Wikipedia. Due to the name-callings, lots of change history was redacted.
