Topic: How to post a Wikipedia article

The David Cook page is out of date re Wikipedia, which does, indeed, have a complete article on him. How do I post it to his page here?

Hi Jayelgee

Welcome to Chordie.  I don't believe you can update the info as the edit function is currently disabled on Chordie for copyright reasons.  If I am wrong somebody will be along to correvt me shortly.

Re: How to post a Wikipedia article

As far as I know, you are right Ian.  The edit function had something to do with the band pages and has been disabled for a while now.  Jayelgee, it's very nice that you'd like to help make things more current.  Sadly, those things had to be put on hold due to copyright issues.  If/When that function becomes enabled again, there will no doubt be a large announcement as there are many members that would also like to help out with these types of things.

In the mean time... feel free to check around and jump into the forum discussions.  smile  The community here is pretty great, and everyone is friendly and willing to help others out as well as receive help!  smile

Re: How to post a Wikipedia article

You can not count on Wikipedia for accurate info, to begin with. Any one who can access it and edit it can put in false info.
