Fucking cop-out. RWW is no longer an honest record of the goings on, if they let users at RW censor articles on them. Piss off. humanbe in 00:41, 15 March 2008 (EST)

I was actually counting on you to restore the article. I blanked it to endear myself to her as an agent of goodwill. Calm her down, show her we're nice, and then back to business. The last thing I wanted her to do was go all SlimVirgin on us. Hans Johnson I'll get my hans on it 04:59, 15 March 2008 (EST)
Ah, ok. Well, I did manage to re-create it, and of course rant about your kowtowing ;) humanbe in 00:21, 17 March 2008 (EST)

You know... there are actually wikis not on the internet... there is a food called "wikipedia", and there's the wiki-wiki bus (which inspired the name of the software) and heaps more ;) --Ryan 22:50, 16 March 2008 (EST)

Does the wiki-wiki bus suffer from edit wars? I think the intent of the phrase was to refer to the applications we are all using.

I think it's a bit unfair (especially considering the weak example used, which isn't even from RW) to make a big deal out of this, since many of us on RW are challenged in some way in our writing style. We all act (as on any wiki) as each others' proofreaders and copyeditors. As long as the meaning is reasonably clear, it shouldn't matter much. Icewedge is spelling-impaired, yet has built a couple of good on-topic articles. Trent forgets to use commas and splits compound words all the time. Eira, although not as active of late, tends to use too many words. But just as with Barbara, these contributions are valuable and can readily be improved. humanbe in 15:20, 17 March 2008 (EST)
