Like any good online personality, I do my best to keep up with the online reputation management of myself and the brands I manage.
In this case, I track via RSS the revisions to the Search Engine Roundtable's Wikipedia article.
At 18:54 today, some guy from the IP address of 199.20.26.98 made a change to the page. In short, he felt that the Search Engine Roundtable "is by far tha gayest site i have ever seen wikipedia sucks!"
I did a reverse IP address lookup on this user and it turns out he/she goes to Bishop State Community College, or at least made the revision from a college computer. The change was reverted by Philip Trueman, who seems to specialize in killing Wiki vandalism.
So either this Bishop State guy things the Search Engine Roundtable is spam or he hates the article on Wikipedia about the Search Engine Roundtable OR he just is bored in class and needs to keep his time occupied.

Tools for tracking, analytics and reporting are wonderful things.
