Probo Koala owners change Wikipedia
The editors of Wikipedia were forced this week to repeatedly restore the entry for Probo Koala, the ship that last year dumped 500 tonnes of toxic waste in Ivory Coast, the Volkskrant reported on Friday.
The ship’s owners, Trafigura, kept changing the Dutch-language entry to say they had done nothing wrong. It has now been non-editable since Wednesday.
