You have a mechanism for this? In my experience both sides will rush
to Wikipedia every time their preferred expert drops some new pearl of
wisdom, in an attempt to make their side the more compelling overall
within the argument.
It is not the function of Wikipedia to be either
promoting or debunking
theories. Doing either of these would be jumping on one side's POV
bandwagon. I tried to look up aetherometry just to see what it is but
we currently do not have an article about it.
Yes, exactly that. We deleted Aetherometry after endless arguments
because the theory itself was unpublished and lacked any independent
discussion.
