"letter to the wikitor" Post date  06.23.2005, 7:52 AM

Ross Mayfield from Many 2 Many was dismayed when the LA Times hurriedly cancelled its "wikatorials" experiment after a single, unpleasant spate of vandalism:

I’m still a bit irked that the LA Times Editors shut down the Wikitorials community. I started to become engaged in the community and saw promise. They shut it down without warning and without thinking things through to begin with.

So he's leading the charge on a community-penned letter to the editor on (you guessed it) a wiki, to perhaps breathe a little warmth into cold feet.
