They run along with everthing else a news site. After spet 11 they have learned. The bad publictly for wikipedia would bite big time.
They are abusing our site for corporate gain! Surely we have every right to block them! They at least owe us an apology for misusing our resources like this.
Doubtful. Remember with the exception of a few spin off enterprizes the BBC is non profit makeing.
Well, if they want to violate [[WP:POINT]], we can disrupt them back. To quote [[meta:Bash]]: You can, however, disrupt Encarta to make a point. I don't see why the same shouldn't hold for anyone who corporate entities who do the same to us.
Besides, if the BBC has 20,000+ employees on their side, how many more users do we have on *our* side? With the powers of Wikipedia and Slashdot combined...
Not a significant number since the BCC is one of the planets most respected news organisations. They are the number 1 site in the uk. You'd get almost no supporters and I doubt they would even notice any such "attack".
