I am proud to say that while I was serving in Afghanistan in 2005, on my down time as anonymous editor “214.13.4.151” I managed to make the following edit stick as the opening line for the abortion article at wikipedia:

“An abortion is the removal or expulsion from the uterus of an embryo or fetus, resulting in or caused by its death”

This article in The Atlantic covered the kerfuffle I created:
http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2006/09/a-closer-look-at-the-neutral-point-of-view-npov/5120/

That same basic definition was in place for 6 years until last year pro-abort freaks simply rolled over everyone and forced a new definition into the article and eliminated any mention of death - and editors were banned if they protested in any way.

Here is what you must do if you want to FIX the definition:
Sign up for an account, and then while logged in, over a period of 10 days make 5 to 10 grammatical or formatting corrections each day to a variety of articles that are not controversial (such as your hometown, or your favorite TV show, or a landmark in your state). DO NOT EDIT THE ABORTION ARTICLE DURING THIS TIME. Then go to the talk page for the article and make suggestions - don’t give away your stance - just make suggestions for edits and give source material to back up the corrections. Sources should be non-pro-life sources so that people cannot questions the sources.

They even stalked me and tried to bully me into shutting up by discussing the fact that my IP address belonged to the military.
