@ silent slashes. I am not mad at you in particular, please don't get me wrong. As for the differentiation between the actual articles and the comments, I know it's weird, but apparently a lot of people just remember which site they were on. "Where did I read this? - Ah yes on the TW Wiki..." Hence the confusion between facts and opinions.

In my opinion you did defend those offensive comments since you say there must be a cause. And eventhough you started your sentence with something like "this is not ok"  you continued with "BUT...", which looks like an attempt to relativize to me. You know the saying: "Everything before the BUT is BS"?

@ Arteminx: my argument is not one sided, I'm not ignoring your statements and points, I just don't agree with them. I've been following this debate for ages, not getting too much involved because I didn't see the need, I WAS WRONG. I should have engaged way more earlier. You mention the lock of the articles. That wasn't always the case. I'll tell you what happened. People would edit articles, change or ruin the format, even write false information in them. Sometimes pages would even end up blank because some lunatic tried to edit, failed messed up everything and just left the page. I would have locked the articles too if letting available for editing means actually more work.
