[Taxacom] Wikipedia politics: the future don't look so bright

[Richard Jensen]

Paul,

To be fair about it, you did more than just "add a link".  Your comment
about Stephen's botanical expertise was a personal jab, and you did infer
that what he was doing was regressive.

This from a neutral reader who has no stake in the "debate" that may follow.
