    Once again we run into the age-old problem of requiring a [[power structure]] without wanting one because all new power structures are always based on earlier power structures finally leading to people flaming the [[Lowest Troll]] to be a Despot, Dictator, Fascist, [[Sysop]] or [[GodKing]] with [[God's Eye View]].

    ''This stuff from [[Meta-Wikipedia]]'s list of IRC quotes seems relevant to the question of tagging for [[faction]]:''
    <juxho> here are the basic assumptions i'm relying on: there
            will be [[opinion wiki]] where strict syntax will be
            required to get aggregate information to [[publish wiki]],
            non-neutral-pov is the rule. there will be research
            wiki where all non-neutral-pov stuff will get axed
            immediatelly with a kind notice to go mess around in the
            [[opinion wiki]]. [[publish wiki]] will import from
            [[research wiki]] pending that someone will bet their own
            credibility in declaring some information so certain that
            it needs to be published. also aggregated (via SQL scripts
            written in a not-yet-decided language) will be used to
            automatically update the articles in [[publish wiki]] with
            the aggregate information from [[opinion wiki]] with
            highlights and links to the whole mess of opinions

    How sad that [[Juxo]] discusses this stuff with the [[groupthink]]ers, but not here first!!!  Why not ask intelligent people from all these factions over here?
