[MLA] Our Change.org petition

[Grimm | Eelco]

Dear friends,

I just read that the honorable Royal Dutch Academy of Science (https://www.knaw.nl/en) has rewarded the important yearly "Erasmus" price of €150000 to Wikipedia. Their report says "Wikipedia receives the prize because it has promoted the dissemination of knowledge through a comprehensive and universally accessible encyclopaedia." http://www.erasmusprijs.org/?lang=en&page=Erasmusprijs.

Although I agree with the comment from Thomas and Bob Ludwig (and for instance Jaron Lanier) on Wikipedia, I guess that if a prestiguous scientific institution like the KNAW supports Wikipedia, it does not hurt to use a link in a change.org petition. 

Still, we need to make sure the page is in good shape. With Kevin being one of its editors that should be no problem. So please, if anyone sees an error on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness_war, let's make sure to solve it.

There will be a new title soon for the petition, we will let you know. And we are working on finding a proper supporting platform (in stead of MLA). 

All the best for the last days of 2015,
Eelco

PS I sent this message before but the MLA reflector did not respond. I'm sorry if you received it more than once.
