The linked to article makes a big deal of the fact Shankbone wrote the Wikipedia article saying Santa isb't real. Also it mentions Wikipidia 25 times and Wikinews once, and even then calls it a section of Wikipedia and says it employs 25 reporters, not that it has 25 accredited reporters (who are volunteers), which would be corret.
