See the update at the end of the article.

Wikipedia user “Poccil” saw fit to delete me from the list of accordionists in the “Accordion” entry. What did I do to you, dude?

I will admit that unlike the other fine people listed as accordionists

in the entry, I am merely a hobbyist, but wouldn’t you agree that nobody pushes accordioning as a hobby the way I do?

Update (2004-09-13 12:05 p.m. EDT): Wikipedia user “Suppafly” has reinstated my entry. Thanks, dude!


Why, you might ask, didn’t I simply update the Wikipedia entry

myself? Considering that anybody is allowed to edit Wikipedia, it would

be a very simple matter. However, I think it’s poor form and a

violation of the spirit of Wikipedia to make such an edit oneself.
