weird — I’m near the top of the “war on blogs” hitlist?

I came across this yesterday, posted by Wil Wheaton:

“Wikipedia Trolls try to get entries on bloggers deleted

A well-known group of childish trolls is at it again, this time launching a coordinated effort to delete pages for several popular and well-known bloggers on Wikipedia. Their first (and current) target is Tony Pierce, and they say they’re going after the Freeway Blogger and Violet Blue next.”

Read more in this post on Metblogs LA by David Markland. They mention me at the bottom as being next on the hitlist in this so-called “war on blogs”. Yikes.

It’s like 6am here in Vienna and I can’t sleep. I can hear Eddie with the same jetlag issue in the next room over, across the hall…

Update: Just found this post Wikipedia Trolls try to get entries on bloggers deleted with my name in it on Digg as well, with lotsa comments.
