I was quite happy to see one of my projects mentioned on Wikipedia for the first time, in the reCAPTCHA article. I've discovered it from the list of referring sites shown by GitHub Insights, and then the mention disappeared.
Looking at the edit history of the article, someone added it a year ago, and then 204.132.216.84 has decided recently that a genuinely informative section must be removed from the article, because they thought it's "self-promotion for browser extension".
Dear 204.132.216.84, you're wrong.

- dessant 6y agoHi, I'm glad you found it useful! I don't feel that strongly about the issue to make a case for it, it was just a bit sad to see an article become less informative because of an editor's paranoia, and me being denied immortality :P.
