[edit] Me, Myself, and I

I have a terrible problem with the use of wikipedia as a soapbox. It does nobody any good to have a collection of slander or at best biased opinions cited from political pundits.

I believe wikipedia will shine once it is able to present facts in the manner of acedemia where sources are consulted and people are accountable for their personal analysis rather than anonymous users hiding behind the assertions of others.

To this end I hope to contribute to the "clean up" work that needs to be done with respect to unsound assertions merely perpetuating the inherent biases that people like to pretend they don't hold.
