What harm to us follows from a 13 year old administrator? Sometimes someone tries to claim they were unfairly censored, "And by a 13 year old". All that means is that even a 13 year old can see through their game. I suppose there are questions of legal liability and copyright. Generally I have been impressed by our teenagers (at least the ones that don't add "poop" to articles). Fred On Jun 12, 2006, at 8:22 AM, Steve Bennett wrote:

Not a major disincentive, but I'd certainly be slightly less inclined to contribute if I knew putting "Wikipedia editor, administrator, mailing list moderator, IRC sysop, OTRS-user and Arbitration Committee Clerk" on my [[curriculum vitae]] would raise more negative questions about me than it answered. Maybe it would be a better idea to only allow minors to edit with parental permission. Again, though, we'd lose some editors, and we'd have to present this same screen to every anon editor. Sigh...

They would have to release their writings under the GFDL too, just like regular people (remember, that's a condition of the GFDL, that all derivate works, ie every edit on wikipedia that was based on an earlier edit, are under the GFDL too). --Oskar

Just a note: Just browsed through the shit-swamp that is Wikipedia Review and Daniel Brandt has just found another thing to complain about: Us equating his threats with terrorist demands. Oh yeah, and he's not even happy that you guys are considering deleting his article. He's not happy at all. He's moaning that you didn't debate the "ethics" of having an article on him and are just doing it to get rid of him. Sad. On 6/12/06, Anthony DiPierro <wikilegal(a)inbox.org> wrote:
