[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 513222, member: 112"]You ever tried it David ? It is something of a daunting task. Part of the problem is that the people making the decisions about what editing is permitted don't know squat to begin with. They rely entirely on supporting documentation submitted by those doing the posting. So what do you suppose happens when the original poster submits a web site or a book as his supporting documentation - but that web site or book is wrong ? The people making the decisions have no idea that info is wrong, they just know it is supported. So then you have to go through a long drawn out process submitting a ton of information trying to prove that the original info is wrong. And even then, those with the authority may choose not to believe you and let bad info stand. It's a broken system to begin with, and quite honestly it's not worth the time and trouble it takes to get something changed.[/QUOTE]
