Photographer Recounts Ordeal With Wikipedia Page Creation And Takedown
Three months after its creation, Kirsch received an email from an individual operating a digital marketing company who informed her that the Wikipedia page had been removed due to insufficient information. The sender offered assistance in restoring the page. Despite finding the situation suspicious, Kirsch, intrigued by the potential for recognition, compiled a comprehensive biography and a list of links to articles about her work.
Further investigation by a friend revealed that the page's original creator was a man who primarily wrote Wikipedia entries for female artists.
