This is US Politician Mike Rogers.

He was a Congressman for 15 years. He supported the Iraq war. He is a strong supporter of Israel. He is against abortion. He said Joe Biden stole the 2020 election. He opposes electric cars.

My issue? He is a coward. He is a ashamed of his positions.

His team was recently informed that they need to improve his wikipedia page.

Don't ask me how I know this. I won't tell you.

I'm asking you to pay attention to his wikipedia page. Check it on a regular basis.

Would be good to let actual Wikipedia editors know this, e.g. on the talk page. They will probably be more successful at noticing and correcting manipulation than random readers randomly checking the page.

The edit logs are publicly visible, one of the recent editors has already been banned for sockpuppetry.

OP could additionally use something like visualping to track changes.

You can check the log on the modifications.

I don't see any improvements. Still a dipshit.

I no longer trust Wikipedia anyway.
