Well, to judge from some of the comments I received about allowing the
use of dates in the form [[1 April]] as well as [[April 1]], not only am
I the Incarnation of Pure Evil[tm] ... not only am I going to "go off"
and destroy the 'Pedia ... I am going to cause gibbering insanity among
all Americans!
I didn't know I was so powerful until then. But now that I have
realized my destiny ... bwah hah hah!

Judging from the reply, you certainly do have strong
views
on this subject. Saying that I am "trying to drive away half of
the contributors to the 'pedia" IS inflammatory.
On this point I agree with Gary. A little while ago I suggested what I
felt
was a small and reasonable change. Someone promptly bit my head off
without
bothering to tell me what was wrong with my idea. I remain leery of
suggesting any future ideas even though I still don't understand what
was so
blasphemous about the idea I suggested. Strange accusations like "Are
you
trying to destroy the pedia?" is not the way to foster constructive
discussion about the possibilities of the software or the content.
