if the wikimedia staff had some integrity and a brain they would put some protection against IP address editing. Plus this is what i gather from the new change:

GFDL - Attribution must physically accompany all copies

CC - Attribution may by conveyed via any "reasonable means"

you can imagine what that means: no respect for contributors whatsoever.

Why dont you read up on Wikipedia and its history and problems from an OUTSIDE non-Wiki source.

Hitler banned smoking, didnt drink, and loved animals. Does that make him a nice guy too? Nope.

How can you say that a non-profit project that gives free-of-charge information to the entire world, that goes to 3rd world countries and distributes PCs with offline copies of the entire Wikipedia to poor children and keeps away from publicity, sucks???

What have you done today for the World? You suck!

Apparently I do have a point, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered you so, now would I?

Cheers.
