[WikiEN-l] Journal of Biblical Literature is also requiring aWikipedia entry

[brewhaha%40edmc.net]

I do not think the encyclopedia is the best way to promote literature of 
this kind. The web? Sure. Everybody on the internet has publishing capacity 
on the web. The encyclopedia is for facts that are really not open to 
dispute. wikisources or wikimedia commons seem like more appropriate venues 
if not a USENET newsgroup, like alt.religion.*
