I've great respect for GwenGale. I don't, however, have any respect whatsoever for the preposterous, not to say idiotic, rules and policies of WP. That and that alone makes me unsuitable for editing any WP article whatsoever. I also think that it is those very rules and policies that gut any integrity a so called minority view article could ever have. The only thing the WP rules and policies have accomplished at the AS article is to prevent useful, important and thoroughly verified information to be included, at the same time irrelevant and factually false claims have been inflated and scattered all through the article. There is no integrity there, very little informative value and a high degree of distortion. If that is the WP idea of ""integrity"", then that is an integrity not worth protecting. And isn't WP supposed to the free and public encyclopedia? If that is the case, why should we be bound by any dictates from Jimmy Wales? We are the editors, not him. He may have founded it, but we are the ones upholding it. By the logic employed by some editors here, the government should be allowed to have total control of the internet, because it was government that ""created"" the internet. That is the principle WP seems to follow, and I reject that principle. I also submit that any rule and policy that is so demonstrably destructive as those employed in editing the AS article can and should be altered or abolished.   "
