I'm assuming that the reporter got this wrong: "The resignation came after
Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales confirmed that the addition to the biography
came from an IP address affiliated with the Cox campaign."
Because if that's true, it's kind of a lame move.
The person makeing the edit wasn't logged in so anyone could run a whois.
