This blog post has been mentioned by multiple media organizations:

Max Brantley (June 8, 2018). "Wikipedia: History according to Jon Woods". Arkansas Times. Funny stuff underway on convicted felon Jon Woods' Wikipedia page. Currently, no mention can be found there that he was convicted of taking kickbacks in the Eccelsia College scandal. Lots of mention of the supposed conflicts of people involved in his prosecution.
Doug Smith (June 6, 2012). "Spicy Senate race in NW Arkansas". Arkansas Times. Not a lawyer, how does Jon Woods make a living?...Wikipedia identifies him as "an Arkansas legislator and musician ... currently the bassist in Fayetteville rock band, A Good Fight."

Image

Can the image of Woods playing bass be replaced? I'm sure there's the opportunity for a better-composed one (with better lighting and with the top of his head!). Cheers, Cycle~ (talk) 02:32, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
