| The activities uncovered by Wikileaks include deleting Guantanamo detainees'
| ID numbers from Wikipedia, posting of self-praising comments on news websites
| in response to negative articles, promoting pro-Guantanamo stories on the
| Internet news focus website Digg, and even altering Wikipedia's entry on
| Cuban President Fidel Castro to describe him as "an admitted transexual"

|
| The proof Wikeleaks assembled includes the IP address and whois ownership
| record for public.jtfgtmo.southcom.mil, which is Guantanamo's Internet
| gateway server, google hits on that IP address, a traceroute through a
| satellite downlink, the whois ownership record for that downlink, links to
| the defaced Wikipedia entries, links to comments posted at news websites,
| records of approximately 140 promotions of news articles at Digg, links and
| quotes about three alleged US military propagandists who are stationed at
| Guantanamo, and fourteen links to other Wikileaks articles about Guantanamo.
