I sure as hell do believe that this list is full of messages that are poorly
edited.

I, of course, am writing from my own personal experience. It was the
appallingly inaccurate and often racist material in articles related to black
people that brought me to Wikipedia in the first place. Another factor
contributing to crappy article quality is related to the heavily skewed demographics of
project participants in terms of youth and ethnicity.
But that's nothing new.
And no doubt, Charles -- but the editorial quality of traded messages here
is hardly cause for concern -- and is certainly not even a subject of
productive discussion.
