Precisely. Accountability is one thing. That's absolutely key, we can
all agree. But provoking a needlessly hostile or confrontational scene
whenever you disagree with someone, on the most minor issues--that's
totally unnecessary. Unfortunately, it's been a traditional part of
Wikipedia at least since I became Wikipedia's resident whipping boy. :-)
Now that I'm officially no longer the project leader (thank god), I see
the same venom directed at others.
There's no reason for this; a little kindness, *please*!
