Comment (by atagar):

 Hi traumschule, I'd suggest being careful. Wikipedia has made it pretty
 clear in the past that they don't want us to take a hand in maintaining
 tor related pages. Roger has had frustrations on this front, and my
 account got banned when I corrected links for one of my projects...

 Personally I'm still pissed with that Alexf guy. Eventually by serendipity
 I crossed paths with a couple other (much friendlier) Wikipedia admins at
 a tech meetup that unblocked my account but cautioned me that we should
 only leave notes on the talk pages - not directly edit pages ourselves.

 To their credit they've been phenomenally responsive when we do that. For
 example...

 What kind of 'more attention' did you have in mind? Seems to me they've
 pretty clearly told us to generally stay away. :)
