Republican candidate for lieutenant governor Daniel Miller says a recently created Wikipedia entry on him is in danger of being deleted, and he blames cancel culture.
Just six hours after its creation by an unnamed Wikipedia editor, Miller, founder of the Texas Independence Movement, says his page, which includes biographical information on him, face to move to be deleted by other users.
"It took 25 years of service to Texas to finally get an entry on Wikipedia. It only took 6 hours for the cancel culture mafia to attempt to have the entry removed."
Wikipedia is notorious for stringent criteria for subjects of articles. If a person is deemed not notable, any over-zealous user could nominate it for deletion almost immediately upon its creation.
Miller took the move to delete his page as a sign that people are worried about his candidacy.
"While it’s frustrating to have to battle the mini-Stalins of the world merely for the right to be heard, it is the surest sign that we are winning."
