Hi Joan: Actually I read this as it was a front page article in the local San Diego Sunday newspaper and I was more encouraged than discouraged to the extent that now if people go in and fiddle with a posting the Wiki folks can at least track down the corporate source of the fiddling and can reverse the changes if appropriate. I'm a fan of wiki for the long run. For the short run I have to concede that there can be short time frames that are problematic.
