A story about the deletion wars on Wikipedia. I am an inclusionist, and for the record I refuse to pursue deletion of articles based on Wikipedia's slippery "notability" guideline. c.f., Flukeman I refuse to put such articles up for deletion, yet "notability", as defined by Wikipedia, would be hard to establish.

I am of the firm opinion that the initial 1/4 or 1/3 of all Wikipedia articles (well most anyways) should be intelligible to an 8th grader. When I edit a Wikipedia topic, in my mind's eye I see an 8th grader with a report on due the next day on that topic. I pity this 8th grader when, for example, he has to write an article on geodesic, and he runs into an unintelligible Wikipedia article because the technical people have gone off the deep end. An article that is so incomprehensible that he does not even get a toe-hold as to what is going on. Alas, the poor 8th grader...please edit to give him or her a chance!
