Having been involved fairly extensively in edits at Wikipedia regarding the Andrew Wakefield fraud I can comment on this. Basically Wikipedia now has so many rules and guidelines that an editor there can always find a reason to disapprove an edit or correction. So this creates a situation where their internal biases become essentially the determining factor in what gets in.

Not to mention egos. I've drawn hellfire down on myself for correcting typos.

That reminds me of a 9 year old Weird Al Yankovic video I only just discovered this last month. Guess I'm falling behind on contemporary culture.Is that a correct use of "myself"?
