I just don't have the energy to fight.
One of my favorite things about Wikipedia is the sense of self-reliance.
In other words, if there's something that bugs you, fix it.
If Wikipedia is missing an entry, create one.[1]
If Wikipedia's information is incorrect or incomplete, fix it.
If Wikipedia's sourcing is insufficient, add a source.
If Wikipedia's spelling is bad, fix it.
Fix fix fix.
Instead of complain complain complain delete delete delete.
But hey. We're getting near the 7-year life cycle of most such innovative
projects, so I'm expecting the major successful fork pretty soon.
[1] An option now forbidden[2] to most users of Wikipedia
[2] By "forbidden" I mean "put behind a wall of forced registration and yet
another freaking password to remember".
