However, four different viewpoints of the Wikipedia have emerged recently:
- It is an encyclopedia with a community
- It is a community with an encyclopedia

I agree with the first, though many users agree with the second and some the third and fourth.
Users who express the second or fourth views need to be pointed to [[WP:NOT]]. Users who express the third view need to be gently reminded of the value of collaboration and consensus.
