Uncyclopedia has plenty of criticism of the blocking policy.  Encyclopedia Dramatica is impossible to edit because any attempt to edit triggers a spam filter. Impartial administrators need to decide what this wiki is for. [[User:Proxima Centauri|Proxima Centauri]] 02:32, 16 November 2008 (EST)

:It's hardly a criticism. On a humorwiki you get blocked humorously and without much sense. Ooooooh that's a harsh criticism indeed. And spam filter? If that's the only reason why there's no criticism, then how did the article get there in the first place? Clearly if someone wanted to write a criticism they could get around the spam filter in the same way. [[User:Jazzman831|Jazz]][[User talk:Jazzman831|Man]] 14:28, 16 November 2008 (EST)

== What wiki means to me ==
Hello folks, I envisioned [[SwitchWiki]] (in 2002, really before [[Wikipedia]] was as influential as it is now) as a place where people could come and find out about different communities using the collaborative tools, processes and philosophies of wiki.  At first the place needed to have actual wiki in it, very much like a yellow pages type situation. 
I also envisioned people here figuring out new direction and ways to increase the value of the wiki, in specific here at [[WikiIndex]], in general - all wiki.  So I ask, how can we creatively solve this issue.  What is the [[diff]]?  It doesn't have to be neutral - but it does have to be fair, just and respectful.  I know we can all figure that out.  Look forward to that.  Best, [[MarkDilley]]
