As I understand it, all of Wikipedia is available to all readers. It follows 
that the same standard should prevail throughout, however good, or poor. And 
that's without exposing the lamentable ArbCom pages to the children of the 
world. We can, and should, be giving a better example to our future 
committed contributors. So it's no wonder new editors are being deterred, 
when existing editors are being treated with such disdain.  Unless and until 
we can follow Jimbo's proclaimed model of tolerance and forgiveness, silence 
is the best model to follow.
