Well one could say the same for the 'theory of evolution' or the 'theory of relativity'. I don't see anyone moaning that those theories are written as fact. Its the theory of evolution, it isn't 'the facts of evolution'.

Don't come here double standardising us. Go to the science community and get your own glass house in order first, before you start throwing stones at ours.

Also, yours is not a legitimate concern. It is an angry rant. We have a separate board for those.

It's not an angry rant, it's a legitimate concern. As for errors that includes a typo or two I saw when reading and I wanted to know how I could help with the wiki quality. Also I saw a post about addressing those who are new to the FES and figured expressing the information in such a manner would sit better with most who aren't associated with FES.

Edit: also from reading other posts it is clear that not all FEs have the same beliefs and such changes may also sit better with them.

Also what do you mean by double standardising and glass houses?

I have noticed that much of the wording in the wiki, especially the FAQ, uses wording that implies Earth is factually flat instead of describing the position of FES as an "opinion" or "theory" (so that discussion may be more openly received). Additionally, I noticed quite a few minor errors and factual inaccuracies throughout the wiki. How does editing work and how do these types of issues generally get addressed?
