Wasting human and material rersources for something which
isn't our core business. I'm really baffled, that while
arguing about WP:NPOV and and WP:V and WP:whatever, it 
is sometimes forgotten, that the project started with 
the mission to write an encyclopedia.

Regarding the argument to have zillions of articles
in [[:Category:Bed and breakfasts in London]] and the
like, doesn't disturb more "traditional" articles, just
look how it dilutes our efforts of quality assurance.

There exists something where every fact, non-fact and 
opinion can be freely presented, it's called the WWW and
you buy your server space yourself there.
