This sounds a lot like the arguments against Wikipedia in 
general---surely if you're a good researcher, perhaps a professor in 
archaeology, creating a good article on your area of expertise for 
Wikipedia --- do you really want any archaeology-ignorant editor later 
fiddling with it and maybe destroying it?

I'd say it's worked out pretty well so far. ;-)
