Craziest thing that's ever happened to me on Wikipedia?
In August 2010, a user ("editor"?) accused EVERYONE (and that would include me) that made edits to the [[Ramakrishna]] page--that they didn't like--of being "devotees of the Ramakrishna Mission" and also that the article itself was "essentially a marketing arm" of the same organization.
