[Foundation-l] Most read US newpaper blasts Wikipedia

Wed Nov 30 06:01:09 UTC 2005

Christopher and Kelly,

I know what you're saying, and I don't think anyone on the
Foundation-L list would endorse anything like regulation or being on
the hook legally.

But this clearly should be added to the wake up calls -- "SOFIXIT"
does not cut it anymore. Wikipedia cannot enjoy the bragging rights of
a "Top 40" web site without changing its quality standards to match.

I'm not convinced the Article Rating feature that is waiting in the
wings is the right or efficient way to do it. But we have to get
closer to the "1.0" solution. It's time.
