Wikipedia's Gets Dirty Edit
World's Most Innocent Encyclopedia is Adding Porn


Digg this TrendStumble this TrendShare this TrendEmailthis TrendEmbed This TrendShare This Trend



Oh look, the most altrustic site on the net is now categorizing porn stars.  It’s true that Wikipedia is too good for ads, but they’re not too good for a little smut.  The most righteous encyclopedia on the net is now categorizing the world’s top porn stars.  I feel so betrayed….  Okay, I am over it, but only because it is my duty to report the news. 

In short, Wikipedia has launched a new category called WikiProject Porn Stars which features porn stars / erotic actors… Does that seem out of sync with their brand?

The project aims to implement a consistent format for articles of pornographic actors, actresses and models, as well as related infobox templates. Additionally, the project is to implement a standard means of procuring information on pornographic actresses, as well as to address what is proper for an encyclopedic article on porn stars.
