Godawful wikipedia articles

Just browsing wikipedia for stuff to clean up, and I saw
"Acid Breaks" needed some cleaning up.. i clicked it and
started lolling. It starts off:

The very first recording of Acid Breaks was back in 1987.
There was a white label floating around in Florida and I got
a hold of it.

oh yeah, and perhaps someone else could write an article on
acid breaks more appropriate for an encyclopedia..

i was hoping to just have to clean up some grammar and shit
like that.. i don't have the knowledge - or time, for that
matter - to put together an entirely new article i'm afraid.

it's a good story... sorry i can neither deny nor confirm
the validity on the origins of acid breaks.

Truth consists in some form of correspondence between belief
and fact. There is nothing wrong with this article

I spent a great day reading Wikipedia's many articles about
Wrestling.

That's completely untrue. What is true is factual.

I won't waste time discussing concepts such as truth and
belief with you.

What I will say is that an encyclopedia isn't a place to
find somebody's personal experiences, written in the
first-person
, in relation to any given thing, even if it
is a community-edited encyclopedia. So there is something
wrong with the article.

I agree that the article is bullshit. It read like something
out of DJ Sammy Rock's (whoever the fuck that is)
autobiography.

And what are acid breaks anyway? I wonder if he means
breakbeat, or what. It doesn't really say.

That is awful. Is it a bragging rights thing?

I didn't even know there was such a thing called Acid
Breaks. The breaksterm was, to my knowledge, first
used around '97 to describe the new breed of bigbeat fused
with electro.

Oh, how wrong I was
