There used to be an [[Edmond Wollmann]] article, created back in early
January.  I cleaned it up to get the worst POV crap out, then supported a
VfD which was successful.  I'm sympathetic to the idea of removing the
reference from the [[Alt.usenet.kooks]] article because it is not
essential to the article and, frankly, any kookiness Edmond may ever have
possessed is more than matched by others.  I speak as the person who first
nominated him for KOTM in 1998.
However anything of this kind removed from the article would likely be
restored within minutes.
