vorangor sub and i know it was just a vandal that's why i said it's almost a relief that it was a silly vandal we were just imagining a disturbing but very possible scenario wikipedia has a lo n n ng future ahead of it as a very well known planet wide resource someday a criminal will post details of a crime challenging law enforcement and wikipedians to put the puzzle together or perhaps a slightly cleverer criminal will post disinformation here hoping to send the cops and or feds up an empty trail all this is easy to imagine and if i may be so bold as to offer jimbo advice it will be best to keep wikipedia media rather decentralized and amorphous with no real legal department to be subpoenaed for deposition or testimony you'll need a volunteer spokesperson like ms cary bass on an ongoing basis but if you begin to present a standard corporate public face you'll find yourselves incurring expenses like a corporation and these expenses might be enough to entirely offset donations in some future year which could be disastrous mimic the internet itself and things should be ok
