The best solution I've been able to come up with is to just slap NPOV 
and factual-dispute tags on these sorts of things, nearly indefinitely 
(or at least until such unlikely time as they don't deserve them).  Then 
we might have crappy articles in the encyclopedia, but at least we warn 
our readers right up front about it.
