Can we have a naval-gazing article on the history of the policy?? Perhaps we'd be able
to address questions of how it came to be.

Subject: [WikiEN-l] Ahhh, physics cranks
Physics cranks drive so much. They were responsible for our "No
Original Research" rule, and now they've forked
arXiv.org:
http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/news/39845
viXra.org is for the stuff even
arXiv.org doesn't want. It appears to
be driven by cranks getting butthurt at being put into the "General
Physics" category, i.e. where the nutters get put. Note their stuff
still got onto arXiv, they just didn't like the category.
I can hardly wait to see what level of crankery viXra produces ...
