From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My name is William Ginsberg, and I'm the CAO (Chief Advertising Officer) of Buckshot, Inc. My boss told me about Wikipedia, and that I should try to wheedle our brand name in there by any means necessary. Disruptively, in other words. My boss had noticed that Wikipedia had gone the way of all media, and had become a sort of free advertising space for public figures such as Beyonce, who don't care about open source & would seek to use it for their own purposes. We devised our shenanigans with a view toward exposing the flaws in Wikipedia, and it worked. Thanks to this community, Buckshot, Inc. has become a household name.

(Let that be a lesson to all struggling artists--the Internet & other media are yours for the taking--you don't need anyone's permission to promote yourself and your work. Look for avenues--they are many, and they are ripe for the picking. And be subtle. Don't let them know what you're up to until the time is right.)

We here at Buckshot, Inc. are big fans & supporters of the open source community. We believe that so-called intellectual property rights do not, in fact, exist. They have no precedent in nature. No one has a right to be tight-fisted & greedy w/r/t to her/his work. We have all been blessed, and we must send out the blessing, open-handedly, out of gratitude and love.

Wikipedia is in danger. Already, the celebrity industry has found ways to prevent users from editing the pages of celebrities such as Beyonce. This is contrary the spirit of Wikipedia, and if Beyonce and others are allowed to continue their fascistic actions, Wikipedia as we know it will die, and maybe that's a good thing. Maybe it's a failed first experiment; maybe not.

We call upon all Wikerasts to subvert the efforts of Beyonce, et al., so that Wikipedia remains a bastion of the values of freespeech and open source.
