David Gerard, who is on vacation, found that the bulk of WP was originated by occasional editors. While admins and wannabes had lots of edits, they were not the main source of useful content. This contradicts statements by Jimbo about who is contributing. You are calling for people who really understand to explain things. When Feynman ran out of brain to figure things, he explained 'em: http://www.vega.org.uk/video/subseries/8 It was a little tricky and he didn't want to disgrace himself, but he did want to stir able young minds to try figuring things out. _______________________________________________ Citizendium-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.purdue.edu/mailman/listinfo/citizendium-l
