[edit] Research Initiative
Do you need help doing some research? I have access to excellent databses of reliable sources (EBSCOhost, JSTOR, Lexis Nexis, etc.) -- take a look at my research requests user project. Feel free to improve the interface, ask questions, or generate a request. Obviously, still in the development stages. Comments welcome!
[edit] Personal Wikipiphany
I think I have come upon a wiki-enlightenment or wikipiphany:
“ | ...it occured to me that in order to preserve the value and absolute functionality of the wiki system, 'somebody has to stop those who would abuse the project or those editors who make good faith efforts to improve it. | ” |

[edit] Wikitruth
“ | If you tell Wikipedians to trim some fingernails, the nature of the Wikipedia environment is that someone will start chopping off hands. And after you go "Hey, slow down, Tex, that's gone too far", they'll switch to just chopping off fingers and everyone's happy at the compromise. | ” |
