It would not surprise me in the least if this person was one of the editors for the wiki entry. We'll never hear how this turns out of course, all that's needed is the allegations for the court of public opinion.

I honestly can't imagine a scenario where someone reaching their dissertation stage and deciding, "here let me google something real quick and print that off."
