Re: [WikiEN-l] Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and other similar entries

I see the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and related entries are taking a POV hammering again. TUF-KAT, Zoe, and I have had to do reverts to it to restore balance in the past, and now Cferrero is doing revert duty tonight. A big problem with this stuff is that many of us (I am certainly one) sometimes lack the detailed knowledge to be 100% confident we are reverting POV ranting and not removing real information. (This particular entry has not been too bad so far, no massive edit wars and just one IP ban, but there is a whole class of broadly similar stuff, and this one will serve as an example of the general class as well as any.) Maybe it is worth considering having a special class of Wikipedia article that is not a completely protected page, but can only be edited by logged-in contributors. I'm not sure if this would work or not, or if it would be practical to implement. I'm just thinking aloud. Any bright ideas out there? Comments?
