| ::I wanted www.wikipediacritics.com, but after I told Somey that I wanted the freedom to launch that and to advertise it on WR as our compromise, Somey turned around and registered that domain name and made it redirect to Wikipedia Review, just to be nasty. I set up a ProBoards site, but it is not the same, since I can't advertise it. I really want to have Wikipedia Review run like it was in the beginning, before all of the power trips. I don't think that it needs any change, it just needs to go back to what it was like to start with. Well, perhaps a few changes. For one thing, I wouldn't allow any anti-critics people in at all. Obviously some of the current staff at WR would not be made staff if it was run properly, but some of them would stay staff too, depending on how they got to be staff really. But when something is stolen, it is really gone, and there isn't much I can do but to try to advertise the truth of it. Much like how WR couldn't change Wikipedia, all it could do was to warn people about its dangers. It is all a bit depressing really, since that's the 2nd site I ran which got stolen from me at the peak of its popularity, and then run into the ground.

| + | :::Just for the record, Selina grabbed wikipediacritics.com and redirected it, not me. She also grabbed several other domains, as Daniel Brandt has revealed [http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=20862&view=findpost&p=138755 here], and whether or not she did it "just to be nasty" is anyone's guess. (It's anyone's guess as to how long that link will work, btw.) The only domains I'm currently squatting on are critizendium.org and knolreview.com, neither of which redirect to anything. I'll probably let them both expire after their year is out, in case anyone wants them. [[User:Sueme|Somey]] 01:05, 30 October 2008 (PDT) |
