[WikiEN-l] partisan wrangling on wikipedia

Sat Feb 1 01:22:37 UTC 2003

When I think of wikipedia, somehow I'm reminded of the [[Milgram
experiment]]--except the seats are really wired.  Currently I would
not recommend anyone join wikipedia, unless the person knows of some
obscure Russian filmmaker to write about or some photographic
technique which calls for dry unemotional writing.  Something about
the culture here is just *wrong*; it calls to people who itch to have
a buzzer in hand, and those of us lucky enough not to be on the
receiving end are still uncomfortable watching the spectacle.

Why are you here?  Are any of you trying to change another person's
opinion?  If you are, you belong on Usenet, and best of luck.
