From August until October 2006, MyWikiBiz created content for about 10 articles that found their way to Wikipedia.  Three of them were disclosed to the "powers that be" at Wikipedia, which led to two of them being deleted, and the remaining one being savaged by Wikipedia co-founder [[Criticism of Jimmy Wales|Jimmy Wales]].  In the pinnacle of hypocrisy, an administrator who acted as Wales' lap-dog later plagiarized the original MyWikiBiz content and attempted (unsuccessfully, as he was caught red-handed) to [[Criticism_of_Jimmy_Wales#Tolerance_of_plagiarism|claim the content ''ab initio'']] as his own.

What about the other seven articles that were not disclosed? All are beautifully residing to this day within Wikipedia, thoughtfully tended to by the editing community.  To these articles, MyWikiBiz has added at least 25 more Wikipedia pages and improvements on behalf of clients.  Only two or three have ever been overturned by the Wikipedia administrative community.

What about the other seven articles that were not disclosed? All are beautifully residing to this day within Wikipedia, thoughtfully tended to by the editing community.  To these articles, MyWikiBiz has added many dozens more Wikipedia pages and improvements on behalf of clients.  Only two or three articles have ever been overturned by the Wikipedia administrative community.
    
Therefore, we at MyWikiBiz have concluded that content decisions at Wikipedia are not at all about "the quality of the contribution", but rather, "the provenance of the contribution".  If the editor is embedded in the community, their content generally stays; but if the editor is new and unfamiliar, their content will generally be deprecated or removed with prejudice.
