Hey, all of y'all's, go head forth to Wikpedia's Scienceblogs.com entry, and make it as good as you can.
Please say nice things about me. PZ just announced on his blog that people should go and edit the site, and I hate to think what it will say about me if his primary readership is all that contribute....
Well, OK, you can say mean things about me if they're true. No flamewars, though! That's not appropriate on Wikipedia. More important, though, is to get accurate stuff about the whole site and the whole collection of bloggers there. There's a bunch of stuff in the "discussion" page that was written previously. (My entry in the discussion page is blank, by the way.).

It is with great regret that I am writing this. Scienceblogs.com has been a big part of my life for four years now and it is hard to say good bye.

Blogs and schools often don't mix. Many blogs are free ranging entities untethered to an institutional or editorial framework. In public discussions of Scienceblogs.com, the fact that every blogger is editorially independent of each other and of the hosting organization, Seed Media Group, is…
The fallout from the Pepsi incident continues to suck all the oxygen out of science blogging, with the latest news being the departure of Bora Zivkovic. If you don't have time to read his farewell novel, here's the short version: Seed Media Group management are insufficiently attentive to the blogs…
A post up at Bayblab is causing a bit of a stir; ScienceBlogs.com is singled out as an incestuous conclave of hacks* where bloggers are paid substantial sums to turn out tabloid-quality science writing. Alright, maybe such a summary isn't entirely accurate, but the post by "Anonymous Coward" paints…
"No flamewars, though! That's not appropriate on Wikipedia"
Rob, you become more annoyingly self centered, smug and insulting every day.
you must be working hard at being a protruding organ.
Kevin -
Pot, meet Kettle. . .Except that's not entirely appropriate, as Rob really doesn't strike me as any of those things. Quite the opposite rather. So, Pot, look in the mirror.
Kevin -- what a bizarre response to that statement.
Hey Rob, you need to take several steps back and maybe a stress pill or two. You take things far too personally.
Magnum -- that is also a very weird comment. Where did that come from? Where's the personal offense and stress in this post????
I don't think that the religion issue would be particularly divisive on Wikipedia. Perhaps a small blurb detailing some of the controversy. I'd hope that things like "PZ is the greatest human being in the universe; Rob sucks and is worse than everyone." would be scapped pretty quickly.
You guys realize that I was joking when I wrote that? Not all theists are a bunch of zealots who take themselves so seriously that they are incapable of a little joke here and there, you realize.

I most certainly do NOT realize this. What is your evidence?
