When it comes to process, it also should be noted that WP lacks any mandatory process to resolve content disputes.  Ultimately, only voluntary mediation [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution is available].  The dispute resolution jurisdiction of ArbCom (WP’s “supreme court”) extends only issues of user behavior.  So what does this mean?  On WP what it most often means is that if a user belongs to a rather determined group (often a “wiki-project”) that is devoted to promoting certain views and holding tough against outsiders with other views, they will usually prevail by wearing down their opponents, or driving them off, through gaming the system.  Ultimately, it is not about what you know, but how you play the game.
