I've quickly lost faith in Wikipedia editors after trying to argue that

no, Alex Trebek's name is not Giorgi Alex-Suka Trebek or whatever bullshit you can come up with

"But TV Guide says otherwise! Why would they cite false information? They had to have a source somewhere!"

Yeah. Right fucking here, on this fucking page!

Anyone familiar with the Slavic culture will tell you right away: no one in their right mind (I have no reason to doubt that his parents were) would name their child "suka" (which in at least Russian and Ukrainian means "bitch"). God, you people...

Thank you for letting me know about the name for this bullshit.
