Has wiki changed? I posted precise definitions on stem cells and cloning back when I offered the little book about the subject in 2001. ‘Editors’ promptly changed the wording to fit the then agenda of exploiting embryonic stem cells. Has the place changed that much, that deception filters are in place and active? I doubt it, but I have not been consulting wiki for a long time now so I may have missed something.

I remember having similar problems with wiki regarding stem cells and cloning back then. It has been my recent experience, though, that they are very concerned with the credibility of the information posted on their web site, and they present different viewpoints on controversial issues and they ask users to help improve articles. Here are two examples:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_views_on_cloning

AHhhh...

The problem with WIKI revealed.

Protestantism!

Everyone is their own editor!

Perhaps WIKI should have synods that will solidify definitions for a time.
