...But of these sophisms and elenchs of merchandise I skill not...
Milton, Areopagitica

Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last
Temptation breaks on; quieter than death but lovelier; peace
that quiets the desire even of praising it.

A modest suggestion for wikipedia, to avoid the neutered banality of the non-commited, non-committal entry.
Branch from the original toward the actual biased entries, more than one. Partisan edits toward polarization linked to from header article.
So that entries like this, on Filiberto Ojeda Rios, Puerto Rican hero, can be more than an obviously bowdlerized collection of statistics.
Branch one out to the FBI-philic, another toward the Independencias. Let the reader decide. This fence-straddling is weak, and conveys timidity where there should be passion.
