Blah blah Slimvirgin redux

OK, maybe that post from yesterday was a bit too cryptic. I was referring to a long-running thread on wikien-l, which I won't even link to in order to spare a few people. Perhaps anyone who doubts that Wikipedia is an MMORPG should take a look, though.

Matthew Brown said of Larry Pieniazek participating on Wikipedia Review: "it's a shifting mess of crazy and often malice, and I feel that listening and engaging with paranoids and obsessives to that degree can affect one's thinking." Same could, and probably should, be said of Wikipedia, or wikien-l at least.
