Looks like MormonCorp has been playing dirty in Wikipedia.

Possible SCMC activity? Possibly.

List of fictional British monarchs [cur] 41638877 /* [[King Ralph]] */


Alright I understand most of that stuff....but why would they be worried about making sure King Ralph is on a list of fictional British monarchs?

Nonsense, Mercury. We know from a trusted source that the church or its leaders have little if any contact with the internet. Your information is simply incorrect.

lol - i like this edit to the "CTR" page:

I took out a very offensive phrase that had been added calling the Mormons "nasty mother f#####Relief Society who must be stopped." It is absolutely inappropriate and downright offensive!!!!

Still waiting for Will to back this up...

So is this the IP address for church headquarters or something?
We hate to seem like we don’t trust every nut with a story, but there’s evidence we can point to, and dance while shouting taunting phrases.

Hocus Pocus (film) [cur] 87071746 /* Plot Summary */
Malon (The Legend of Zelda) [cur] 133515844 /* Oracle of Seasons */
Lizardman (Soul Calibur) [cur] 134980296 /* SC3 Cameo Endings */
Kashmir (song) [cur] 137183697 /* Cultural references */
Shawn Bradley [cur] 148077053 /* NBA */ more proper description of Bradley than "rail-thin"


What a diverse list of things this person is interested in correcting.....from Hocus Pocus to Zelda to Kashmir.....but honestly we all know Shawn Bradley is "rail-thin".

Hurricane activity in the Caribbean. An earthquake in Peru.

These so-called "acts of nature" have the fingerprints of the SCMC all over them.

Why was the following deleted from Wikipedia?

Mormon temple ceremonies, such as the prayer circle, once used the words "Pay Lay Ale" which the church believed were Adamic words meaning "Oh God, hear the words of my mouth." The untranslated words are no longer used in temple ceremonies and have been replaced by the English version.


The source of the edit came from an IP address assigned by ICANN to Mormoncorp.

Oh please Danny. Are you and the sacred tapirs traipsing around Wikipedia?

The media does not like it when Halliburton mods wikipedia. This goes double for corporations masquerading as religions.
