I agree with Zoe. Let me put it this way. I don't care if Michael's only 
edit to a given article is to correct the spelling of a single word, I'm 
reverting it. I may then choose to edit the page myself and correct the 
spelling myself, but I will not knowingly let Michael edit the Wikipedia, 
under any circumstances. Well, I might make an allowance on a talk page, 
but probably not.
