The Wikipedia FAQK by Lore Sjöberg
“Wikipedia is such a powerful argument engine that it actually leaks out to the rest of the web, spontaneously forming meta-arguments about itself on any open message board.”

That was a fun read. I especially liked the definitions of vandalism and neutral point of view. This reminds me of an assignment to research the HERS foundation. There was quite an argument going on at the hysterectomy website about the HERS leader constantly making changes that weren’t in a neutral POV. But as you article pointed out, is there really a neutral POV out there about subjects that are controversial?
