It has been obvious to me for a long time that this sort of thing is quite prevalent. On the one hand it sort of makes a mockery of the open and free principles espoused by wikipedia. But then again, it seem an inevitable development, afterall, we all know it can't be an out and out free for all.
So I accept that there is a place for it, but occasionally I get the feeling there is a cosy little club operating, to which not even 20,000 edits will open a door. Furthermore, those born prior to 1976 need not apply - open and free indeed! pippu d'angelo
