...thanks for that. The "Assyrian" page is just such an example...although their rules say that reliable citations must be listed for all claims, the editors of that page, both assyrians, break that rule constantly...I pointed out to them that the article of mine they banned had actual citations, from well-known historians, while their own writings did not...didn't matter, I was gone.

..the whole thing is scary...mob rule indeed. They work exactly backwards from what a true encyclopedia is...a real source examine information BEFORE going public...they have editors and experts and they shop around for the best evidence possible...wikishit lets any asshole post and they wait to see if enough people even care, or read, to "correct" the info..and usually the "correction: is some other yahoos version, pulled from HIS ass....I can't believe people actually go to wkishits for real information...maybe they don't,,,maybe, as it is a "democracy" they go looking for the norm, for consensus....the whole thing faces backwards.

..the final proof is that in no other encyclopedia or reference source will you find mention of the existence of modern assyrians...only in wikishits...that tells you everything about modern assyrians AND wikishits.
