[WikiEN-l] What's going on? - Inquiry 2

[Marc Riddell]

Folks,

I have just spent some time reviewing the List's archives for the past
several months, and it is clear something is changing ­ and not for the
good. The dialogues have become more combative, argumentative and downright
mean. The individual contributions have become more aggressive, intolerant,
patronizing, bullying, insulting, and downright mean. There has been a
steady decline in fairness, civility and just plain listening.

Also, it appears that the majority of the Members of this List are willing
to scrutinize anyone or anything but themselves.

What's going on?
