Hello,
Advice please.
During a bout of Insomnia-Induced Insanity, I did a major expansion of the article about David Hager. Hager is the controversial fellow that Bush appointed to the FDA committee on Reproductive Health Drugs. (Self-disclosure: We both live in central Kentucky and our paths crossed through our professions from mid 80's - mid 90's.) Being a controversial figure, I was prepared to deal with POV crap. However, I never thought anyone would put him on a list of convicted rapists. Of course, I immediately took his name off the list. He was on the list for less than five hours, from Dec. 1 00:58 to 05:19. This brings up several issues.
- Was this information spread to other web sites like Answers.com? Who do I ask to find out?
That is quite a difficult question to answer. For the most part no since I doubt it will have been included in a datebase dump however there are some sites that apear to pick up our content live
I know Wikipedia was developing a live feed for answers.com at some point. Not sure if this was ever implented. But that's just answers.com. Most of the mirrors likely use database dumps.
Also, if answers.com updates that quickly, then it'll fix the problem as quickly as it creates it.
