Progress only occurs when there are different views that can coexist. When you force the less popular views to disapear into a talk page, ie into obscurity, then the stronger view becomes the only view. So wikipedia is not solving the filter buble problem as it is now. It simply has one filter buble created by the most enduring, by the strongest.
In my proposal, all different opinions could and should be easiliy accessible.

Yes! Let's build our own [[Filter bubble]] right into Wikipedia!
