Hello! And greetings from Sweden!
I would like to get in contact with any of the international organizers/leaders of the Wikipedia project!
Over here in Sweden, I have problems with the correct information of political parties. Different political groups apparently rearrange each others pages.
From my point of view, I would like to secure the proper information in the
interest of the public and the democratic community! Thus each party or political group should have control of their own pages, rather than to let their political opponents have the control.
Who could I discuss this topic with?
All the best! And good luck with a great project!
Carl-Johan Swaerdenheim, SWEDEN The Swedish Conservative Party

Why should there be problems? The swedish Wikipedia has over 43.000 articles and 50 very active users/admins, that's more than enough to resist any vandals. I didn't hear about any problems from there so why do you, a outsider as it seems, request a proposel which is strongly against the idea of openess which we have from many years now?

right here is ok.
ciao, tom

this is not a bug, this is a feature :-)

sorry, but this is not how Wikipedia works. Please have a look at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:NPOV
which describes / defines the meaning of "neutral point of view". This is one of the most important concepts within Wikipedia and it is very important to understand it.
