Wikipediocracy is a website for discussion and criticism of Misplaced Pages. Its members have documented problems plaguing Misplaced Pages and have sometimes provided journalists with background information on these problems.
Media activity
Wikipediocracy contributors have played investigative roles in the reporting of various problems, conflicts, and controversies about Misplaced Pages. Wikipediocracy members contacted Salon.com reporter Andrew Leonard to alert him of the "Qworty fiasco" and to supply him with information on the connection between Misplaced Pages editor Qworty and writer Robert Clark Young. His article Revenge, Ego, and the Corruption of Misplaced Pages published the fact that "revenge editor" Qworty was, in fact, Young in real life.
