Hasn't been fighting vandals enough; has no familiarity with how pernicious and harmful they are, so their opinion on anything pertaining to this is suspect Once all opposing views are successfully labeled, then claim a consensus because all remaining people agree. -- == Dan == Dan's Mail Format Site: http://mailformat.dan.info/ Dan's Web Tips: http://webtips.dan.info/ Dan's Domain Site: http://domains.dan.info/ _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
