What hath Wiki wrought?
A dramatic exercise designed to reveal the unanticipated consequences of launching one of the most prominent ethically-challenged sites on the Internet.
The above exchange occured in the wake of Doc Glasgow's departure from Wikipedia over the intractability of the BLP problem.
Now, the latest example of the BLP problem is playing out on the very same biography that I first deigned to edit last August, in a futile effort to raise it (and others like it) to a respectable level of accuracy, excellence, and ethics in media.
I note that FCYTravis (with whom I have not directly communicated, save for what he might have read in these threads), is making many of
the same arguments I made, back in August.
