Okay, just did a google search for Jimmy Savile for another thread and the first link that pops up with Wikipedia. There's also a thumbnail on the right hand side that gives a summation of pertinent info. Here's exactly what is said:

"Sir James Wilson Vincent "Jimmy" Savile, OBE, KCSG was an English DJ, television and radio personality, dance hall manager, and charity fundraiser. Wikipedia."

Note: not one mention he was a child molester! Not one! There might be mention of it farther down, but if you search, you don't see one iota of the scandal and the lives he ruined. I guess this more than proves the OP's point.

Jimmy Savile does not equal Jimmy Wales, the former CEO of Wikipedia.

This is so dumb. Here's the end of the first paragraph on his wikipedia page

After his death, hundreds of allegations of sexual abuse were made against him, leading the police to believe that Savile had been a predatory sex offender[4]—possibly one of Britain's most prolific.[5][6][7][8] There had been allegations during his lifetime, but they were dismissed and accusers ignored or disbelieved; Savile took legal action against some accusers.

I suppose this page doesn't exist either https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Savile_sexual_abuse_scandal

Also it's wikipedia. If want the first sentence to be changed go edit it.

Here's a suggested edit, add this to the first sentence ......who after his death was accused of hundreds of instances of child sexual abuse.

Heh. You're new to Wikipedia aren't you?
