I'm not quite certain. If I recall, is there not a rule that restricts from a notable
person from making edits to thier own page...?

McKellan: I don't understand Wikipedia. I've looked myself up on it and it's
thoroughly objectionable. It's just taken, as the basis of my career, an article that
was written about five years ago, and why someone doesn't correct it.. is that how
it's done?
Empire: Pretty much. If you want to change something, you can go on and correct it
yourself.
McKellan: Oh... I suppose if you wanted to know someone's dates, or where they were
born, it would be quite useful."
What I don't understand is when people look themselves up and see
erroneous information, they don't just go and fix it. It's as if they
have something to prove by saying "Wikipedia sucks" instead of
contributing to the effort and making Wikipedia better.
