Re: [WikiEN-l] Larry Sanger's new project
The problem he apparently trying to solve is that sites like Wikipedia and YouTube are kind of noisy. As problem statements go, it lacks a certain specificity... I know what he means though. The snarling nonsense we sometimes encounter on mailing lists or during editing disputes could fairly be characterized as noise. The question is whether this project will be any better.

I don't think that is what he means. I think he's talking from the perspective of content users, not content generators. ___ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l

For the editor, or for the reader, one does ask.
