Maybe we need a simple "the English Wikipedia is in English" page, to make this point just as natural as the NPOV?
I think the problem is that Lir is young and has more energy to question authority, than patience to listen before he speaks. This makes it hard for him to engage in a dialogue. He questions his peers, with whom he should cooperate, instead of knowing his enemies and where he should direct his energy. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. I think his homepage indicated he was 21. I'm 36. I have no idea how old or young or energetic or lazy everybody else is. I'm lazy enough, not to bother very much in all the detail. But I know that after Lir we will still have the same problem with the next of the same kind. So what is our conclusion, and what tools will we have prepared for the next time this happens?
