Rene Gonzalez, the Portland city commissioner and candidate for mayor, recently paid $6,400 to spruce up his profile on Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia maintained by volunteer editors.

He did so using city taxpayer dollars.

Gonzalez’s office at City Hall hired a New York-based company in March to develop a handful of requested edits to the Wikipedia page and also train a “designee” on the submission process, records obtained by The Oregonian/OregonLive through a public records request show.
