The effect of Wikipedia on brand reputation

The page with the highest number of editions has reached 53,000 revisions

Many people or companies aim to improve their digital reputation using Wikipedia.

Many agencies or people believe that it is necessary to have positive content on Wikipedia to rank Google’s first pages.

The risk lies in the universal accessibility of the encyclopedia.

Additionally, there is an exposure to information changing based on reputation.

Wikipedia data indicates that the George W. Bush page is the most edited, with 47,178 reviews.

Only the site of WWE wrestlers has more: 53,091.

The relationship between Wikipedia and Google

The relationship between Wikipedia and Google dates back more than 20 years.

In other words, they have agreed that the encyclopedia is a valuable source of information while the search engine considers it to be the best site.

When you create content, Google immediately indexes a Wikipedia page within a few hours.

Negative Wikipedia articles

No one has the authority to delete Wikipedia articles, whether they are positive, neutral, or negative.

Only the so-called Wikipedians are entitled to cancel them.

No matter how hard you try to include positive links in your article, someone will access, modify and keep reliable information online.

Instead, Wikipedia can damage someone if they become embroiled in a scandal that jeopardizes their online reputation, and the facts appear on Google’s first page.

ReputationUP, a specialized company in online reputation and the Right to Be forgotten, applies online reputation management elements to help companies with reputational difficulties.
