Not to mention people's irritating and continuing habit of publishing successful books, making notable films (running the risk of creating notable actors and other staff), creating successful companies with successful products, progressing with scientific enquiry, advancing technology, releasing new software... At this rate we'll never finish the encyclopedia. Once Wikipedia has more cultural power I suggest we wield it to put a halt to all activity until we've caught up. Once that's achieved I suggest that all human endeavours are posted as requests through our OTRS and we can tell the actor/scientist/inventor whether we are willing to allow them to proceed (after we have assessed whether their activity is liable to create something that meet our notability criteria) or whether they must wait until we clear any current backlog. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
