Let's flesh out Babylon 5's EA government system

[Beastro]

It was around years ago when I last looked it up. What's weird to make is it seems that a lot of information about the EA has been culled on wiki's and used to have more of a background into Earth's history from right before WWIII to the Dilgar War. Could very well be it was made up by someone, but that information was around for a long while and was around in a few places, doesn't feel right to me.

On Wikipedia, the page on non-Euclidean Geometry once claimed that Professor Moriarty had a doctorate in non-Euclidean Geometry. This was totally unsourced, and it stayed up for some time, even finding it's way into books. I traced it back once to some abandoned fanfic. Somebody making it up and it ending up on a wiki, is plausible to me.

Main thing that made trust it was that it popped up a good while before wikipedia's popularity on simple fansites and such. If I knew where to dig I'd go looking for what JMS has talked about it and see what might pop up as such fan sites had a lot of his answers to things from usenet and such.

Reminds me though of someone I knew online years ago had a thing he'd played called the "Wikipedia game" with friends where he'd mess with scientific articles, like altering one number of the mass of the moon, and then make bets seeing how long it would stay up.
