::Thanks for getting back to me, Mark. I agree that we could review wikis (and of course there's always some subjectivity in deciding a wiki's status and in how to describe a wiki's content). I think it could add to the usefulness of the site. However, it wasn't how I perceived the site's mission as it stands right now. And if when we do review wikis, I hope it's something a bit more informative than "this wiki sux", which is approximately the level of usefulness that I see this particular user's comments as being. Please let me know if I get too far off base, though. --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 12:51, 7 May 2009 (EDT)

:::After reading the [[Wikia]] article, I was wondering if this wiki was here to list wikis or review them. See [[:Category_talk:Wikia#Criticism|my comments in the Criticism section of the Wikia talk page]].

::::Rereading the Welcome page, I noticed the statement "We strive to share wiki experiences and encourage wiki folk to think about issues in wikidom." I guess you can't really do that without giving your personal perspective. I'm just so used to the "neutral point of view" ethos of Wikipedia, I extended it to this wiki. ;-) I agree that providing one's impression of a wiki could be helpful to visitors. I just would hate to see more edit wars like occurred with the entry for [[Conservapedia]]. --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 22:16, 7 May 2009 (EDT)
