[WikiEN-l] Another troll "testing" Wikipedia

Wikipedia is going to need to be robust enough to cope. There's plenty
of junk on it at present, one is going to have to accept that.
"Wikifaith" is overrated IMO, there's no point in believing that
Wikipedia is some flawless amazing gift to humanity! Too many
wondermints!

Perhaps instead of just Featured Article or not, we could have ratings
on each article. How to set those would be another matter - but
there's likely to be some solution. Perhaps it could just be an
accumulated rating, that if one reads it, one can add your vote to the
average. Logged in users could have a greater influence, perhaps
sysops even more (or less ;o)

But perhaps I'm musing too much.
