My personal philosophy on Wikis 'WikiEthics'

  • Information should be free and accessible to all.
    • I believe pay-to-edit Wikis are this an allusion to universities and other institutions, which I believe should not charge us to study. I believe they monopolize on our own intelligence.
      • I support the Anti-Wikia Alliance to some extent. Wikia should not make changes to its layout permanently without the consent of its individual Wikis.
      • However, I believe that people should not set up Wikis on the Wikia service for the sake of simply abandoning them and 'sporking' them on to an independent Wiki for later.
  • I reject the irony of Wikipedia's notability criteria for deleting articles or reverting edits which are not 'verifiable', yet keeping statements quoted by e.g. the local press.
    • There is a slight "relative autonomy" with smaller articles, which the 'WikiTyrants' miss out, which can be a double-edge sword when it comes to validity.
