essentially eliminates the ability to link to Wikipedia Review, which
fails at least four of the five "Should I link to it?" criteria in
"LINKLOVE". If people stopped pushing BADSITES and looked at
something more like LINKLOVE they'd win over those of us who don't
give a fuck about linking to the Wikipedia Review but are unprepared
to delink
slashdot.org from [[slashdot]] or
newyorker.com from [[The
New Yorker]]. It's probably worth considering.
Well yes, but at least one IP has recently marked that as rejected
based on the assertion that it is BADSITES in all but name. Some
people seem unwilling to move beyond absolutist positions.

Perhaps, but "one IP" is hardly the voice of the community. LINKLOVE
looks good to me, and I'd endorse making it a guideline at the very
least. I say this as someone strongly opposed to BADSITES.
