Rookie cards for players who came out after cards became collectible aren't worth that much
By the 80s, when the card mania got going, there were lots more cards being printed and saved and kept in good condition, so even now, they aren’t worth tons.

“It’s all your fault! (Sieve!) It’s all your fault! (Sieve!)”
“Ugly,” of course, was the chant every time the keeper popped up his mask, usually for water, and until he put it back down again, at which point everyone cheered.

This story is likely untrue. Wikipedia vandalism is very, very difficult to pull off successfully for any extended period of time.
Particularly re: what was likely a common historical subject.

But if he did it just for a 12-24 hour window? Seems less difficult.

I'm talking 45-60 minute window.
That’s about the best you can hope for even on relatively obscure entries. Go to wiki and tell it to take you to a random entry. Then look at the editing/revision and visit histories. I can’t even think of an historical subject that could be vandalized for longer than 15-20 mins.

engineering undergrads do this sort of thing
When I was in college
I would go to Wikipedia and when something was sourced, I’d go find the source used in the article and pull my own stuff out of it.
Me too.
In fact many profs wouldn’t allow us to cite internet sources at all. They were teaching us how to research the 20th century way, which I guess they thought would give us some kind of advantage. This was mid-to-late nineties and all major journals were already online and the library had subscriptions to every one of them.

SMU Law, at least...
….still makes first years learn how to use the books. I couldn’t use the books in the library to do research if my life depended on it, plus it would take 10x as long.
I wish we had better books.
I kind of feel like there’s a gap right now in expert level technical writing in the hard sciences, but that just be my specific area. We’re getting better at distribution of (or at least access to) cutting edge equipment, but it is still a mentoring process to learn how to use them.
