I would just like to applaud the jayjg, who after having disappeared from the pages of Wikipedia and this mailing list for several months, returned with a vengeance... this thread was supposed to be about how to improve the signal to noise ratio on wiki-en-l, and has now been hijacked into a debate on BADSITES - what is it, Round 27 now?
Thanks much for pointing that out. I was about to knee-jerkily respond to 5 or 6 of jayjg's posts, which would have been pretty ironic given that I was the one who was just arguing against everyone's tendency to knee-jerkily make the same arguments over and over again...
(I'll think I'll strictly limit myself to *one* on-list post, and respond to all the rest of jayjg's fallacies privately.)
