Um... Hm. The words "unaccepable" and "unfogiveable" only entered the lexicon after the Siegenthaller meteorite impacted and wiped out all notions that "collaboration," "consensus," and "wikilove" were sufficient. The fact of the matter was then, remains so, and will remain so, that some articles are just not as notable, and therefore won't get seen and won't get checked on anyone's schedule.** There is no issue of "unforgivability' involved at all, even if we can say that there is a serious issue of "unacceptability." And even then, the focus on BLP articles comes not from a general appreciation for 'reliability,' but from a practical need to focus on people that can write editorials, a logical limitation on the usage of the "unacceptability" as a whip, and a healthy fear of 'let's not get our assets sued.' - Stevertigo ** Techs: A script to list unviewed articles based on time.
