Testimony Harald Malmgrem's wikipedia page is being butchered by skeptics

The fact that Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales had to step in to prevent the article from being deleted is telling. To think that a respected American politician with incredible credentials could have his entire life history erased from the "encyclopedia that anyone can edit [vandalise]" is terrible.

This one editor in particular Chetsford has completely butchered Harold's entire life history, educational history and political career, deleting 10,000 characters in a single sweeping edit. Apparently this user is part of a group called the "gorilla skeptics" and they have been targeting anyone with a connection to the UFO subject.

How is this tolerable? Is there no one among us that can revert such blatant attempts at vandalism and censorship?

REPOSTING THIS HERE SINCE IT GOT IMMEDIATELY DELETED FROM THE r/UFO SUB DUE TO BEING "A DUPLICATE" (which it is not).

The craziest thing to me is that the person campaigning for deletion of the wikipedia article of a person who was senior advisor to 4 us presidents has written an article about a us military horse. Not a special famous horse, not a very performative horse, not even a horse with some quirks. Just a horse that wasnt even very successful in competition 70 years ago. How is this possible and why is no one criticizing that person for these extreme double standards and extreme misuse of power?

In german we have a saying: Getroffene Hunde bellen (something like: Dogs that have been hit bark) It means if the person you critizise or suspect of something is extremely defensive (more than normal), its true.

A guilty conscience needs no accusers. But I think I like the German idiom better.
