They certainly are, but there is no suggestion in that article that
our article was in any way inaccurate or unbalanced. If someone has a
bad record we should report that bad record and it appears that that's
what we've done. I've only had a quick glance at the article, but it
seems well referenced. If we've help someone make an informed
decision, then go us! (I would really advise against using Wikipedia
for team selection, of course, but it seems to have worked fine this
time.)
