Well, I care about the mapper who is interested in an agreed final result and doesn't want to spend his time reading the opinion of individual persons. Just for this there's a talk page for each wiki page. When interested you can subscribe to the talk page separately. If the talk page isn't enough additional pages can be easily created.

I think a better and more detailed wiki page helps osm, irrespectively of edit history. I don't see why editing and refining a page is bad. Sure things can always be done better, but the beauty of wikis is that you can update them fast without going through a comitee. Regards.

Having the discussion on the OSM-dev list makes this even worse. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Relation:multipolygon&action =history All changes except minor should be discussed on the Talk page first. Even if you are the expert and are 200% sure that what you are writing is correct it might be misleading or even not understandable to non experts. And imho that's just the case for the new additions. Asking to be involved in discussions but changing the page without discussion is topping this. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Relation:multipolygon#Recent_change_ about_validity_of_a_multipolygon_relation I'm afraid more mapper will turn away from Wiki pages when they neither can follow nor understand such frequent changes. That's harming OSM.
