Colbert Censored on Wikipedia
Wikipedia sysop blocks Stephen Colbert's account for inciting vandalism:
Yes, that’s right. I blocked the defender of truth, Stephen Colbert tonight on Wikipedia. Yes, I am Wikipedia Tawker and yes, I blocked. That “joke” used way too much of my bandwidth, [I] couldn’t keep up! In all, we ended up protecting 20 elephant related pages (I’m not listing them all here, I only have so much disk space, my stats for the the anti vandalism bots show 250 or so elephant related pages reverts. Most were, you guessed it, the fact that the population tripled - way too many times (repetition my friend). Ironically, Wikipedia suffered an database overload at the same time that this went to air, but that was totally unrelated to the event.
Here's the segment from YouTube.
