Visa ruling incorrectly mentions Misplaced Pages
A Federal Magistrates' Court of Australia ruling that overturned the denial of a visa to an Armenian citizen repeatedly mentions Misplaced Pages, in an apparent misunderstanding:
21. It should be noted that the reference to the web site www.armeniapedia.org (the web site) is taken to be a reference to what I understand the parties to accept is a linked web site to the web site known as "Misplaced Pages".
The court appeared to have assumed that Armeniapedia.org was the same as, or related to, Misplaced Pages; some of the court's individual findings are questions about the reliability of Misplaced Pages, not Armeniapedia.
