Clive Dunn RIP

Sad to read about the death of Clive Dunn, but it makes me want to comment on the Wikipedia craze of seeing who is first to update celebrities pages with the news.

I had a BBC newsflash at 16:26. Out of curiosity, I checked Wikipedia. The first entry, changing “is an actor” to “was an actor” occurred at 16:09.

This is followed by a flurry of activity. I have not looked closely at all the revisions, but normally you get people reverting the entries assuming its a hoax.
