:An interesting analogy... by definition of the Catholic Church, the Pope is infallible on matters of spirituality.  So, if the Pope were editing the article on the Catholic Church, wouldn't his statements have full authority and accuracy as long as it's about matters of faith?  I mean, really, the Pope could just issue a proclamation in order to justify any edit he made.  I think that such a "conflict of interest" is a totally bogus idea.  I don't claim that I'm an authoritative source on the same level to MSM as the Pope is to the Catholic Church... however, I do find that attempting to make such an analogy fails miserably at the purpose intended.
