Basically we want to get back to the point where it is understood that (a) Wikipedia pages relate to the mission, not anyone's felt need for self-expression, and (b) although this tenet needs to be relaxed somewhat around elections, the pages are also not for battling and campaigning for personal attitudes and beefs.
In short, as far as I'm concerned, the yelling and personalia can all go offwiki, even if there needs to be a special site set up for that. People, we are a serious organisation, with something as technical as FR getting broad coverage (another column in today's London Independent).
