Is this news at all?

"4. Sinbad's dead.
Couldn't tell ya what he's actually doing these days, but contrary to a
2007 Wikipedia claim, Sinbad is still around."

and

"8. The University of Cincinnati's former president is a whore.
Former University of Cincinnati president Nancy Zimpher was listed as a
"prostitute" and a "witch" on her Wikipedia page.
Good thing it wasn't true, as that would make for one dangerous
combination."
