-- '''Unprotect'''. I'm OK with the page being unprotected. I think the draft above still needs some work, though. Specifically, the phrase "most of the membership consists of RationalWikians who do not agree with the site's worldview" is problematic. Unless you have access to the IP logs of both sites, or for that matter, psychic insight into the contributors' minds, I think you should shy away from making such general statements which cannot be backed up with a reference. --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 15:02, 14 September 2009 (EDT) | -- '''Unprotect'''.

::Re the phrase - it is actually true, but probably not useful to say because if it becomes untrue, who will remember to change it? Oh, and you don't need IP logs, since we are talking about "membership" - registered and active editors. There are about 4-5 ASKers who are in line with their worldview, and at least that many self-identified RWians there arguing with them on a daily basis. At least a dozen of "us" have been active there, but some don't bother any more. [[User:Huw Powell|Huw Powell]] 20:30, 4 October 2009 (EDT) | |||

Wow, I just tried to make the ugly quote in this article a ref and add a ref section, and both tags (ref and references/) failed. What version of MW is running here? Or did I do something wrong (I suspect not)?

:It's running 1.10, which is about two years old by my reckoning. [[User:Phantom Hoover|Phantom Hoover]] 05:31, 4 October 2009 (EDT) | :It's running 1.10, which is about two years old by my reckoning. [[User:Phantom Hoover|Phantom Hoover]] 05:31, 4 October 2009 (EDT) | ||
