NCSY and Wikipedia

NCSY, like their brother Big Aish, is controlling wikipedia pages like they own it. Like it’s our public schools or something. Anyway, please tell everyone you know that NCSY is blocking all facts about Baruch Lanner on this public site.
This is what “Jon,” a hateful person who claims to be a high level administrator an NCSY, keeps deleting.
==Controversy==
NCSY enabled and protected Rabbi Baruch Lanner, a child molester and abuser, ensuring his continuing to harm, and resisted teen calls for intervention, with staff at Yeshiva University even silencing those teens who protested in order to protect the high level rabbinic counselor. This went on for decades until the ”NY Jewish Week” finally exposed NCSY. [theawarenesscenter.org/lanner_baruch.html]
This is the link to NCSY on Wikipedia.
So I have an idea. If this continues, and NCSY does what “Jon” promises, to remove as many times as possible anything uncomfortable to NCSY, let us retaliate, and have a Baruch Lanner Day.
I think NCSY got away much too long submerging information about Baruch Lanner, and their role enabling and abetting him. They continue to do so today, by purging wikipedia’s page on NCSY of any information on this long and dark chapter of their history. I say, “no more!”
What do you think?

Wikipedia did the same thing with Ner Israel. They took off all mentions of Matis Weinberg and the rest of the gang of child molesters attached to that yeshiva.
NCSY cleaned house completely and instituted protocols and did a major turn-around in terms of how the organization operates. It instituted accountability standards, staff training and has moved in a good direction away from the Lanner-esque cult atmosphere that enabled Lanner.
There are no more big kiruv "stars".
Leave it be. There is nothing left of the old guard. You've actually been successful in making a change for the positive.
Lanner is in jail and his old bosses are gone.
The blogs say that Rabbi Matt Tropp protected Lanner and he is still with the OU / NCSY.
Matt Trop is not with the OU/NCSY anymore, not as of last spring.
