Hi!
Seems like the father of FM-synthesis has joined wikipedia. Some of you
guys might care to take a brief look at the FM-synthesis page, just once
in a while, so it wont get vandalised again?

It's so sad that wikipedia has let us down. We are now required to
register to add new pages. I hope there will soon be a fork, cause I'm
not going there anymore.
Anyone know of any forks of this project or a similar site that offers
a truly free wiki encyclopedia?.

Libel, not slander :)
Also, there is the issue of general wiki spam, posting crap,
advertisements, etc.

If you give into this, you have already lost. A wiki is self
maintainable, in my opinion. You can always look up a revision or a
signed revision and you can always make one the current one.
Those who believe they have to maintain a wiki, have misunderstood
what a wiki is;), in my opinion. It will sort itself out and people
usually fix the page if something is screwed up.
Spam, crap, advertisement; bring it on, I'll revision it off my
righteous path.

I'm still allowed to edit pages without registration as well as I can do
so in the german Wikipedia (though I have a login for the german one,
because only registered users are allowed to add media files).
I agree that registering is a pain, but due to todays spammers who flood
any free forum it's an annoying but necessary step.
Best regards

The spam problem can theoretically be solved on a technical level. I
don't think the libel problem can.
