I, personally, have never had that problem, and have always found Wikipedia to be very unbiased. Have you actually contributed to Wikipedia, or are you just jumping on the story line like a good lemming?

That sounds a little bit overly defensive to me.

Yes, I have contributed edits and articles, I also had them pulled. And I have had them restored, and pulled at a later time. (and removed from the archive) -I have read countless other stories of the same, and I am accutely aware of *Exactly* how the site works.

And you know what? Anybody can delete stuff, or reinstate deleted items, just like anybody can write material. If there's contention, the article is flagged as under debate. If it's not flagged

Ya know what else? The creators maintain ultimate editorial power on controversial issues and they EXCERCISE that power FREQUENTLY anf they are HEAVILY biased to the left. This is a fact. But here's a brilliant idea! Let's all us conservatives refuse to contribute whatsoever!

Sorry, there'd be no point. -Wikipedia is populated only by schoolchildren from Australasia and a few deluded geeks. Wikipedia has long been relagated to the pile of "zero credibility" Kook sites.

I've explained why.

Sorry to crush all of your hearts but SHEEEEZE.
C'mon.... Wikipedia???? I'm -really- sorry that none of you have managed to figure this out on your own.

If your amendments to Wikipedia are similar to your posting style here, it's no wonder they're are pulled. A friendly piece of advice - Wikipedia is for adults, not rants such as yours. Maybe you can give us a sample of you contributions so we can judge...

Some may be ignorant and some may be libertarians who like democrats may be moral liberals and or only find worth in an opposition stance.
