Is this really what we want? To have articles decide
layout and colors? I think
this is a very scary development - this is the same thing that happened to the
web in the early days, and look where we are now! Next thing, we have

IMHO, it is a Good Thing to have all articles within the same encyclopedia that deal with
similar content to use similar layout. It would also help to develop a reputation as a
source of knowledge, compared to a "random dump of factoids".
Of course, an editor can still use it as the latter, but there should be an easy way to
make wikipedia look a little more "organized" than the whole web. After all, we
apply our own standards on content, why not on style and layout as well, where it makes
sense?
