Regardless of the underlying intent, this is just another edit war. In this case, the Boss happens to be involved. I would be much more concerned if the history page were altered to conceal the edits.
My understanding was that Jimbo Wales had done just that. At http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Justin_Berry#Total_rewrite.3F he wrote that he'd like to see a total re-write, and the time of that posting is also the time on the oldest version of the page that's available (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php? title=Justin_Berry&oldid=42757036). My impression was that there was an older page that Jimbo Wales had simply wiped, erasing the history, and blocking the author (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Talk:Justin_Berry#Bone_to_Pick...). Consider also the unlikihood that Jimbo started this page. From the talk page, it looks like the original article can be found at http://rookiee.aisdigital.net/ justin_article_archive/Justin_Berry.htm. /jgt -- http://tamboli.cx/
