Re: [WikiEN-l] So much for the Obama scandal
There is probably some truth in that. Most people who deal with online identity have to deal with the online disinhibition effect (ODE), and many of us have certain experience of expressing ourselves using less-than-ideal concepts. But that's no less true for the few partisans trying to turn the Obama Wikipedia article into the Obama Conservapedia article. Learning to compose one's concepts better is one thing. Learning or not learning the value of NPOV is another, and arguably just as important. -SV On Wed, Mar 11, 2009 at 2:39 AM, Bill Carter billdeancar...@yahoo.com wrote: What's amusing is how self-righteous you are all acting.

Certain thready discussions on certain contentious talk pages would benefit from less disorganized (ie. standard format) talk pages, and more topical-based ones.

Stvertigo thought he would rhyme And began prompting others to chyme But reviews were nonplussed So it promptly got flushed Where it swirled in the waters of time. Anyone have paper?
