If there are certain contentious topics that you find you can't edit 
without it turning into a nasty edit-war (no matter whose fault this 
is), then perhaps it *would* be a good idea to get away from those 
topics and do some more-productive and less-contentious edits on 
different topics.  I, for one, rarely even try to edit [[Anarchism]]; 
it's not worth it, given that anything anybody does there is likely 
to be wiped out in the next round of the eternal edit war.  It's much 
more useful to find areas of interest that are under-covered and 
improve them.  I haven't tried to edit [[bunnies]] or [[flowers]], 
however.
