    I think Wikipedia sysops and MediaWiki developers are putting in considerable consideration into trying to form good practices and guidelines that keep the developer/sysop influence to the GFDL text corpus at tolerable levels. But, hey that's just me and I don't troll, I almost always use a username. --Juxo 22:33, 9 Mar 2004 (EET)

    Using a username doesn't save you from being labelled "a troll". But anyway if you are, just wear it with pride, and advance the New Troll point of view as best you can. There is always going to be some resistance to it, and systemic bias doesn't go away just because of "trying". I don't know what "tolerable" levels of censorship by racists and fascists are, and I might trust you, Juxo, to say what they are, but I don't trust Mr. Wales to do so.
