Wikipedia Review never misses an opportunity to bash Wikipedia for
any reason, or no reason, for anything anybody connected with it does
or fails to do. Consistency is not a virtue for them; they can
simultaneously attack Wikipedians for deleting stuff, for failing to
delete stuff, for taking action in a dictatorial manner without
allowing debate, for engaging in too much time-wasting debate instead
of useful action, for being too fascistic, for being too anarchistic,
for being too highbrow, too lowbrow, too middlebrow, too left-wing,
too right-wing, too pro-American, too anti-American, too academic,
too anti-academic, too pop-cultural, too anti-pop-cultural; for
airing too much dirty laundry in public, for trying to shove its
flaws under the carpet; because it's an unstoppable juggernaut,
because it's an unstable mess that's about to collapse; it's
capitalist, it's communist; Jimbo screws it up by exercising his
personal whims, Jimbo is a do-nothing figurehead who refuses to act
at all; critics get harrassed, critics get ignored; people get banned
unfairly, people don't get banned who deserve it; its mailing lists
and IRC rooms have nothing but idle, pointless, off-topic chitchat;
its mailing lists and IRC rooms are where all the important policy
decisions get made to the exclusion of people who participate on the
actual Wikipedia discussion pages.
