Hello,
Up until very recently, Wikipedia has had a Facebook fan page, with a large
number (at least five-figure) number of fans. This page, however, has
disappeared. Does anyone know why this is?
I'm unsure if the fan page was official (or rather, ran by a prominent
member of the community), but its deletion has left us with a number of far
smaller pages, the largest of which has 5,961 fans. The alarming thing about
this page, however, is that it is hardly flattering to Wikipedia when it is
bore in mind that the display image is as follows:
http://profile.ak.facebook.com/object3/1533/67/l44712023245_41.jpg
(A motivational image stating "Wikipedia: The truth is now editable").
I thought I would raise it as a point here, as it may be something to
contact Facebook about, simply because it does not shed Wikipedia - and our
work - in the best light with such an image being seen by anyone who types
"Wikipedia" into the Facebook search box.
It may also be an idea to set up some sort of stable and official page.
