Anyway, I've been reading some of the

indicate something of a Wikipedia-backlash-backlash.
This means, of course, that Wikipedia is now Punk Rock.
The concept of multilayered backlashes is hardly new either to
Wikipedia or to Punk Rock; it's present, for instance, in the
centuries-old English word "antidisestablishmentarianism", which is a
name for the backlash against disestablishmentarianism, which in turn
is the backlash against establishmentarianism. If another level of
backlash were to develop, it might be named
"contraantidisestablishmentarianism".
