It must be noted that Making Light isn't helping matters itself, running an extended attack piece on SWATjester after he dared stop one SF writer's attempt to use Wikipedia for self-publicity. The Nielsen Haydens proceeded to encourage this. That they did so after the last BADSITES kerfuffle beggars belief ...
Other sites shouldn't be allowed to criticize Wikipedia or Wikipedians? They should be expected to do everything by Wikipedia's rules and standards and not their own?
Only a *Nazi* would try to stop them publishing whatever they think they can get away with. Deliberately setting out to piss people off is unlikely to make people want to work with or near them in any way whatsoever, however.
(And User:Pnh has been around Wikipedia long enough to damn well know better.)
