But it is most important that the editors report what a source actually says and not twist it to their POV by quoting or paraphrasing it out of context.  The "editor's note" provides the context for the reader, it does not try to tell the reader what to think.  Talk.Origins twisted what the authors meant to serve it's agenda by keeping the context from the readers.  And when WP uses Talk.Origins it promulgates the lies.

The purpose of an encyclopedia is to report what people or groups say and believe without commentary on whether it is good, bad or indifferent.  ALL of the articles in WP about and related to Creationism are editorialized up the wazoo.  In other words, on this topic, WP has ceased to be an encyclopedia, and has become a propaganda machine.
