Submission + - CIA, FBI computers used for Wikipedia edits

pilsner.urquell writes: Wikipedia's conflict-of-interest guidelines may have been violated by persons in the FBI and CIA. A new program, WikiScanner, allows users to track the source of computers used to make changes to Wikipedia.

WikiScanner revealed that CIA computers were used to edit an entry on the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003. A graphic on casualties was edited to add that many figures were estimated and were not broken down by class.
