Come now, it's an attribute of deity (depending on one's theological position), and you should be flattered that they recognize your natural superiority.

What had me giggling was the line about 'the term "Wiki" refers to "Wicca"' - these guys really do not have a clue about what a wiki really is or the origins of the word, do they? Heh. So next will we be accused of secretly running a coven? Oh, no, wait - don't tell me, that's the Secret Cabal of Administrators, right?
Of course that would then lead to questions of whether it's a Gardnerian, Alexandrian, Lycian or Eclectiv coven - but hey, these are neo-nazis who don't let a little thing like religious accuracy get in their way. We're all devil worshippers and Jimbo sacrifices babies at the clambake every third Tuesday of the month, right?

I've seen a lot of vandalism coming from schools and universities, but I've yet to see vandalism from the uni I attend.

Possible conclusions
Students from your university are exceptionally well behaved. Your university is very small. No one from your university bothers to do research on the web and so has never come across wikipedia. (except you) Everyone from your university (except you of course) is too stupid to work out that "edit this page" means they can edit a page. Your university is not connected to the Internet.
Takes yer pick ;-)

Well, personally, this is going to fail. Not because of their lack of tech skills, nor from lack of users. It is lack of dough. From looking at what Wikimedia needs to raise and see how much they spend on just running the sites, I do not think Stormfront would have enough dough to pull it off. And most companies will probably not waste their time or money dealing with neo-Nazis. It's very, very un-PC for companies to deal with fascists.

The Iraq War article has recently been formed to consolodate the term under something a bit more substantive than a disambiguation. There remains the issue of unnecessary dating of events, where such events are uniquely enough referenced and titled to warrant more common terms. There are thousands of cases where we use the common term instead of a more official term, so why then is there a persistence in using a unique standard using titles prefaced with a date?
The problem is that it isn't always agreed when something is "uniquely enough referenced and titled to warrant more common terms", especially taking a historical view. Many news organizations today speak of the "London terrorist attacks", for example, but obviously Wikipedia needs to use a more specific article title since there have been multiple London terrorist attacks over the years.

I think it would be more likely to fail due to the many obvious failings of its proponents. See, for example, the posts of JohnJoyTree in that thread, the only one there who appears to have a clue.

There are twelve of us on the ArbComm, and Jimbo makes thirt-- oh, wait, I shouldn't have said that. THERE ARE NO SECRET MEMBERS OF THE CABAL. FNORD.
Crap. Now I'm going to have to use the Orbital Mind Control Lasers to erase their knowledge of the Secret 33rd-Degree Arbiters....
