A glorious article from the Washington Post about the trials and tribulations of wikipedia contributors and editors trying to forge a description of Ahmadinejad acceptable to all. If you have only read bits and pieces of discussion about Wikipedia being compromised or hopeless, this article gives the sense that Wikipedia is working better than it seems. Which helps me, at least, reconcile my sense that Citizendium and Knol are getting no traction for a reason.

About Me
- Name: Mateu
- Location: Portland, Oregon, United States
Stampeding Caribou dislodged the ice floe where I had been frozen for 71 years. I landed on the shore of Īles-de-la-Madeleine where a motel manager promptly gave me a job cleaning bathrooms. After three years of saving tips and stealing change left by lodgers, I paid my way to America. Seeking toilet scrubbing work in Owego, NY, I accidentally boarded a bus to Lake Oswego, OR. Now I live in Portland.
