Status of Wikipeida
As a writer who took on a project to write a biography of Jayne Pierson after she agreed that the article will only be factual and balanced I have fallen foul to the disgustingly complex and frustrating bureaucracy of Wikipedia. Administrators (I shall not mention names, but can be viewed on the "histroy" of edits section, have taken the arbitrary liberty of reverting edits, alleging no information, references, citations while its pretty obvious they didn't take a single minute out of their time to actually review the references and conclude if what was written was correct or not. I also firmly believe not a single one of them actually took the trouble to review the article properly.

The only reason people like us are asked to write article for others is because its simply too complicating and frustrating for the average person to post up a new article.

While it makes sense to give certain people the power to block edits and revert things posted on pages, these people should be held accountable and should prove they have read the article, gone through the references and say without any doubt that the article is bias, wrong, malicious, etc.

Not a single admin did this. Perhaps the sole power of being able to block things arbitrary got into their heads, and now they refuse to even review the works they delete.

Wikipedia had a spectacular rise, I'm sure with this sort of behaviour only two things are around the corner, radical reforms to simplify and hold to account these admins, or the downfall of Wiki..as only a reference tool and not something people would commit to contribute.

Perhaps that's all it was meant to be

 * Hi There are no admins "in charge". Admins are there to carry out a small set of limite functions.  Most tagging of artciles is done by ordinary editors. This is a collaraborative project. The image was removed because it was not correctly licensend.Jezhotwells (talk) 17:15, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
