Wikipedia Censorship?

Brit believes that Wikipedia engages in censorship

Is Wikipedia running a censorship board? John Barberio thinks so. After more than two years as an active contributor to the free online encyclopedia, the 27-year-old Oxfordshire man recently left the project over the behavior of its “OTRS volunteers,” unpaid administrators who act on reader complaints about the site’s content.

A few quotes from John Barberio appear in the recent article from The Register:

“I dislike using the scary C word, but OTRS are acting as a censorship board.”

Mr. Barberio is further quoted as saying:

“And worse, they appear to be acting as an inept, heavy-handed amateurish censorship board.”
