The question: ‘WHO is trying to clean up Judith Collins’ Wikipedia “reputation”?’ continues to intrigue. (See my earlier post: Suppressing free speech and editing Wikipedia. Is that why we pay taxes, Mrs Collins?)

Is that a drawbridge I hear being pulled up?

We would have asked him to identify himself and declare any political affiliations. Collins’ office told the Herald it does not know who Clarke43 is.

Update 13/7/13:
Someone’s just reminded me of this Trace Hodgson Correction: Sharon Murdoch cartoon from last year, when Mrs Collins was pursuing defamation action against a couple of Opposition MPs whose speculation about a leaked Michelle Boag email she said damaged her reputation …
Kinda fits with the JC press sec sock-puppet sanitising Wikipedia, dunnit?
Hi Peter, Really like your site – just a correction though – the cartoon of Judith Collins is mine, not Trace Hodgson’s. On twitter I’ve just stuck one in that is on GCSB. Sharon Murdoch @domesticanimal #GCSB. Thought you might like it. Happy travels, Sharon
Gosh, sorry Sharon! I’ve corrected my (mis)attribution above.
Thanks for putting me straight. Credit where it’s due: Nice work.
And likewise your GCSB cartoon… https://twitter.com/domesticanimal/status/372871586367295490/photo/1
