The Ongoing Destruction of the Sheldon Brown Repository
Is it me or has the ongoing annotation, expansion and occasionally re-purpose, of the Sheldon Brown bicycle encyclopedia reaching a critical mass? Does anyone else think that John Allen and John Schubert should just start their own bicycle encyclopedias and leave Mr. Brown's intellectual property unchallenged out of respect to Mr. Brown's unmatched breadth of knowledge and website administration. Wikipedia would quickly become unusable if every new editor used their own byline in an attempt to one up the original author. Allen and Schubert afix their own bylines to every edit and new entry they make and appear to be on a quest to completely re-make the site into their own creation. I ask because, and I've searched, I don't see any reaction to this ... desecration... it's not too strong a word, in my opinion.
