Erik, there are some truly terrific, bright and creative people within the greater Wikipedia Community. We really need to have a culture that makes room for them all.
I note that I have asked you before if you've actually attempted to work directly with the community on-wiki, and you demurred:

You claim to be defending the community in the abstract, but don't appear to want to put in the effort to actually work directly with the people in said community.
