Mm. The antinatter fanatics were my first early warning that the site was mutating into something I wouldn't like. I don't like encouraging the pseudoacademics who think everything should be like Wikipedia, and I remember that one of first and best recommendations for TVT (from Bruce Sterling, IIRC) was based in part on its "wry fanfic-style commentary". I want to see "wry" and even "snarky" come back to the new wiki, because I think that irreverent attitude is what made TVT special. Losing that, well, it didn't kill the wiki, but it certainly pushed it firmly in the direction of the ICU.

I would rather have humor and have to debate over cutting the unfunny, than make the default state of the wiki unfunny to begin with.
