When I wrote to the person who seemed to be one of the moderators for that particular wiki-biography, I never heard back.
Comment I have made a couple of corrections to Vikki which was rejected UNTIL I cited other source material. One correction was on the 1967 Detroit rebellion. In my opinion one is going to encounter barriers dealing with anything Detroit. This Lenin things is more complicated and becomes even more complicated because sectarian groups have competing interest in Lenin. For instance where the article on Lenin speaks of his attitude about what is required for a communist state, one could correct this by citing Lenin writings articulating his concept of the dictatorship of the proletariat rather than a "communist state." I did find the following assertion curesou to say the least: >> Even when the health of Lenin began to flag in 1921, it is unclear why his comrades did not seek out more ways to reduce the strain on him, whereas other communist leaders such as Trotsky would routinely take time off and engage in recreation. When Lenin was examined by doctors in March 1922, no evidence of nervous or other pathology was found, but in light of the strong headaches he was experiencing, as well as evidence of over-exhaustion, it was recommended that he take time off to recover.<< The first sentence is meant to say exactly what? Then if I had to name Lenin most celebrated writings it would probable differ from everyone else "celebrated" writings. Go figure. WL.
