The statement they wrote, has a number of very incorrect points,
rather than argue it out here, I will just mention one (Bareos was
started by ONE former contributor). Technically they are a one
man show.<br>
There are many other points that when you carefully read it are
very misleading.<br>

Until the lawsuit is settled, what they have said is only their
opinion on the matter (as its clearly stated in the snippet) as
you are also entitled to yours. I don't think you have any legal
rights to remove that, and shouldn't be asking the bacula
community to either.<br>

Hello Bacula Users,<br>
<br>
I need your help. Bareos, mostly through Maik Aussendorf, is
carrying a negative publicity campaign on the Bacula wikipedia
site:<br>
<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacula">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacula</a><br>
<br>
The problem is every time I remove their propaganda, which is
the following:<br>
<br>
======<br>
<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Bareos_Fork">Bareos Fork</span></h3>
<p>In 2010, a fork of Bacula was started by contributors that
were dissatisfied with the current conduct (by which principal
developers allegedly silently ignored contributions), and the
change to a closed-source license model for the newly created
Enterpise version of Bacula.<sup id="cite_ref-5"
class="reference"><a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacula#cite_note-5"><span>[</span>5<span>]</span></a></sup>
Eventually, this fork was made public under the Name Bareos in
early 2013. It's main goals are to keep the software truly
open-source, to ease configuration and introduce new features.<sup
id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacula#cite_note-6"><span>[</span>6<span>]</span></a></sup>
Bacula Systems accuses Bareos of plagiarism and copyright
violations and opened a lawsuit<sup id="cite_ref-7"
class="reference"><a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacula#cite_note-7"><span>[</span>7<span>]</span></a></sup>
against Bareos and a former Bacula community member in early
December 2013, alleging violation of IP (theft of proprietary
software) and unfair competition. The Bareos project in turn
considers those accusations as ungrounded <a

</sup></p>
<p><sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference">======<br>
</sup></p>
<br>
They put it back, and they have complained that I remove it, so
there is an army of "monitors" threatening me.<br>
<br>
I would very much appreciate help from any of you who know more
about Wikipedia than I do to help me delete the information that
they keep reposting in the above item. At first I tried editing
it to a more neutral statement, but they keep putting it back,
so I have decided that the best is to totally remove it. <br>
<br>
I need your help to succeed. If I am the only one removing this
unpleasant material from the Bacula page, they will ultimately
bar me, and we will be forced to have Bareos propaganda defacing
what the Bacula users and myself have created over the years.
If there are numerous users removing it, at some point they may
understand. I suggest that you leave a comment in why you
edited it to say something like "Removed inappropriate material"
or anything of that nature.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
