Do you support [[Wikipedia:User Bill of Rights]]? ([[User:SEWilco|SEWilco]] 05:37, 21 December 2005 (UTC))
*Not particularly. We're trying to write an encyclopedia here, not build a model of democracy. --[[User:Jpgordon|jpgordon]][[User talk:Jpgordon|∇∆∇∆]] 06:58, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
**Please note that I was answering on the basis of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:User_prerogatives&oldid=31773278 revision] of December 17th. The current one seems just weird and mostly unnecessary. ''Wikipedia policy does not condone discrimination on the basis of race, gender, nationality or sexual preference.'' Well, no. It doesn't. Has anyone suggested it does? ''You may copy and/or distribute any content on Wikipedia, subject to our licensing terms.'' Well, yeah. Anyone can. That's what the licensing terms say. Likewise, ''You may fork, that is, to copy any or all of Wikipedia's content and use it to start your own Wiki.'' And ''You may go through dispute resolution when you are in a dispute with any other user.'' -- well, yeah, that's what dispute resolution is for. I'm kinda scratching my head about what it's supposed to be for now. However: I do stand by my original statement: Wikipedia is [[WP:NOT|not]] an experiment in democracy. --[[User:Jpgordon|jpgordon]][[User talk:Jpgordon|∇∆∇∆]] 04:18, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
