To clarify my skepticism, the complexity of Wikipedia doesn't arise at the user interface level at all but at the level of social interaction. This is unavoidable because you're dealing with other human beings, not a machine. The complexity is necessary, even desirable, for exactly the same reason. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
