Hello Bacula Users,

I need your help.  Bareos, mostly through Maik Aussendorf, is carrying a negative publicity campaign on the Bacula wikipedia site:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacula

The problem is every time I remove their propaganda, which is the following:

======

Bareos Fork

In 2010, a fork of Bacula was started by contributors that were dissatisfied with the current conduct (by which principal developers allegedly silently ignored contributions), and the change to a closed-source license model for the newly created Enterpise version of Bacula.[5] Eventually, this fork was made public under the Name Bareos in early 2013. It's main goals are to keep the software truly open-source, to ease configuration and introduce new features.[6] Bacula Systems accuses Bareos of plagiarism and copyright violations and opened a lawsuit[7] against Bareos and a former Bacula community member in early December 2013, alleging violation of IP (theft of proprietary software) and unfair competition. The Bareos project in turn considers those accusations as ungrounded FUD.[8]

======


They put it back, and they have complained that I remove it, so there is an army of "monitors" threatening me.

I would very much appreciate help from any of you who know more about Wikipedia than I do to help me delete the information that they keep reposting in the above item. At first I tried editing it to a more neutral statement, but they keep putting it back, so I have decided that the best is to totally remove it. 

I need your help to succeed. If I am the only one removing this unpleasant material from the Bacula page, they will ultimately bar me, and we will be forced to have Bareos propaganda defacing what the Bacula users and myself have created over the years.  If there are numerous users removing it, at some point they may understand.  I suggest that you leave a comment in why you edited it to say something like "Removed inappropriate material" or anything of that nature.

Thanks,

Kern
