It is worth noting that Nicholas Carr has taken note of this thread to announce the death of Wikipedia. Apparently, 154 articles semi-protected out of 1,151,768 is the end of open editing.
Hasn't he trolled us before?
I don't think so. He has generally seemed to me to be a reasonable critic. Wrong on some issues, but reasonable. This one is just plain trolling, though.
Or maybe he's just wrong. What's definitely trolling is calling such a statement notable.
