The internet's war with Scientologists has stepped up a gear, after Wikipedia administrators decided to ban the church from making changes to its site.
After a long debate, the online encyclopedia has decided to block anyone using an internet connection linked to the church from making changes to Wikipedia pages - in order to prevent propaganda changes and what it calls "sock puppet" attacks.
The news, first reported in The Register, marks the first time that has the online encyclopedia has taken such sweeping action against a single organisation.
