Wikipedia Neutrality Challenged: Another Wiki Reality Check?

"Wikipedia ruled by 'Lord of the Universe'" "The Register" (February 6, 2008)

Wikipedia's "Conflict of Interest Noticeboard" is supposed to deal with one-sided or biased articles.

There's just one catch.

The creator and administrator of the "Conflict of Interest Noticeboard," Jossi Fresco, is a disciple of Prem Rawat (previously known as Guru Maharaj Ji). You may have heard of Prem Rawat under his preferred title: "Lord of the Universe."

According to "The Register" article, Wikipedia may have a "neutral point of view," but seems to treat some articles more neutrally than others.
