I started editing wikipedia in 2006; my first attempt was somewhat less than stellar.But, in one of the few times that wikipedia has functioned the way it should for me, someone has made William Byers a great article.All I knew was that I went to a Jr. High School named after him.I soon turned my attentions to the fact that too much of the facts about gun control were missing from wikipedia, and set about putting in the facts where they belong.

Oh, no no no, they said, you can't say that.It's point of view, it's irrelevant, you're biased, I can tell from your screen name.Be nice on the talk pages, they said, you can't call a communist piece of crap like Ted Kennedy a communist piece of crap. Well, they didn't say that.

People who don't know the first thing about guns want to revert sourced edits if the facts make their political heroes sound like what they are, a Liberal Democrat.Using a politicians' exact words is point of view why?The reason is that an unemotional recitation of the facts makes a liberal, anti- freedom liberal sound like a Communist sympathizer.

When a retired Army General runs for the Democrat nomination and says on national television that he doesn't see a need for citizens to carry guns, and if you want to mess with guns, join the Army, then he sounds like a Communist.But somehow it isn't appropriate to put his sourced words in his article because "he didn't make gun control a central theme of his campaign."That is some Orwellian stuff.

When a politician stands in the Senate floor and says that he wants to silence the NRA, that is a notable statement,Don't you think?

When a leftist newspaper publishes the names and addresses of CCW license holders, thus endangering their safety and letting every criminal in the city know where there are guns to be stolen, maybe that ought to be in an encyclopedia article about that Communist rag, don't you think? Screw the people who want to turn this project into the Ministry Of Truth .

There are too many assholes running around wikipedia deleting people's work.You should try to add something to wikipedia, not screw it up.

Don't believe me?Look at the history on the Steve Irwin article when he got killed.It went back and forth for 2 days.What nonsense.

For right now, I'm about dome with the wikipedia.It's too rare that it works the way it should.

Have a nice day.
