I have no interest in donating as much as a sneeze to Wikipedia, and do not consider it my responsibility to correct every instance of misinformation on the Internet, but I am inclined to respond to the invitation to comment on the quality of this article, as presented in the box at the top of this page.
By what authority, I wonder, does Wikipedia collectively declare knowledge of Loftus' "primary victory"? That the event described happened might not be in doubt, and a source cited in the article might verify it, but I see no source indicating the relative primacy of his supposed victories. An ambiguous claim like that raises doubt, in my mind, about the integrity of the entire article, and of the context in which it is published. The Wikipedia ideal is "maybe someday we'll get it right" but if that day is not today, it's a waste of my time to read it. Proanoicitian? 05:05, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
