A Point About Credibility
During a recent discussion about Shell, Wikipedia and the evidential standards required when making claims about a multinational corporation, I made a point that deserves expanding.
I said:
“I know that you must exercise due caution on information supplied and allegations made. Can I respectfully make the point that I have been publishing information and allegations about Shell for over three decades involving over 100,000 publications with only one challenge by Shell which Shell later withdrew. That fact should speak volumes about my caution and integrity.”
