And guess what? If you look at what the general public regards as good
encyclopaedias in this day and age, you'll see no Autofellatio, no
Goatse, no terrorist beheadings. I suggest that the people who think
that such material belongs in a good encyclopaedia are a tiny
minority.
Evidently not, else they would be so massively outnumbered on Wikipedia
that such articles would be a cinch for VfD.
Hmmm. Wikipedia as the real world. Even in microcosm it doesn't come
close to being a true reflection. Most people in RL don't spend their
days fooling around writing an encyclopaedia.
