Oh, I don't disagree with you in the least, and certainly, a pause before editing after making a suggestion for a substantive change should be the norm since people from all over the world edit Misplaced Pages and this would allow everyone a chance to chime in. I don't know how we would enforce it though. I think, in retrospect that the page should have been protected from editing and the dispute could have reached some kind of concensus through discussion. This works for awhile, however, since this operation has newcommers everyday, after a few months or less, it seems, the same arguments spring back up again. Happy editing. Oh, also, post comments at the end of talk pages...I'll move your comment to me.--MONGO 05:38, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

True. Though at least with a paper trail of citations on the talk page (preferably all together in once place) it'll keep arguments focused and, hopefully, logical. I will agree that enforcing a 24 hour comment time is going to be hard to make work, unless it could be coded to take effect with an administrator flag of an article perhaps? Protection of the 9-11 articles would service, although in deference to the opposing view, perhaps an Alternative 9/11 Theories article or stub? I don't dispute the fact that most don't think it is worthy of inclusion in the main article, although it may have enough outside support to have a stub or small article of its own.

The are dozens of pages that discuss each building, even the four airplanes that hit the WTC, Pentagon, etc...there does exist the article 9/11 conspiracy theories, which is a pretty long article that incorporates, in summary style, most of the more widely held non mainstream thoughts on the matter.--MONGO 06:21, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
Agreed. They could have started their own article, with relevant citations. No need to start an edit war, imho. --Torinir 06:25, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
