Wikipedia is the Mormon War In Heaven instantiated and the truth has won. As great as Wikipedia is, it is not without its weaknesses. A simple majority of votes is all that is required to include and exclude items. While intellectually weak, this is of minor consequence, for as when I first discovered Wikipedia, I immediately found the real info on the talk pages and archive histories. So, while a well-organized cabal can successfully censor and promote an agenda, their damage is limited. Organizing a counter cable to balance agenda promotion requires finding a group of people with a near irrational devotion to a given subject area. Unfortunately for reason, most people have something better to do than waste their time on Wikipedia. Ergo, ideological cabals can out last reason, patiently waiting for editors to pass away to revert their edits. Thus, we see how religion outlasts reason given the centuries. Nonetheless, the broader Internet is appearing to overcome even Wikipedia's limitations. The above begs the question: Are some Wikipedia editors institutionally funded or are they making editing a full-time job (proven by their edit histories) purely on fanaticism? Probably both.Mormography (talk) 03:40, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
