Forwarding to list on request of Fred Bauder. Hi Fred, Thanks for the response. I would be grateful if you could please clarify the last two sentences since I am not sure if I am reading them right. Are you saying that Wikipedia is poorly equipped to deal with a hate group against a small cult without "unequivocal reliable sources"? What is impossible with a major world religion? That Wikipedia is impossibly poorly equipped to deal with a hate group or any hate group would find it impossible to abuse Wikipedia? What would qualify as "unequivocal reliable sources"?
