(Note: I would have registered here, but the Wikia engine fails to send me the confirmation letter every time. Nevertheless, I have committed several edits to this wiki, mostly when it comes to Russia and related articles -- being the place where I live.)

>> It is even more unclear whether it is supposed to be for American use only or actually address users from other countries. This message wall displays awareness of the latter, yet you still insert random strings of Russian letters in some articles and generally have very Ameri-centric perspective when writing about other countries.

Well, I think these parts were supposed as jokes. When talking about the Ameri-centric POV of this wiki, one should note -- the whole definition of "liberal" is different between North America and rest of the world. This website seems to use the NA definition, which, in Europe, would probably be labeled "Social Liberal" instead.

And, personally, I agree with the NA definition more. First of all, it actually puts "Liberal" as opposite to "Conservative" (on both economical and social spectrums). The European definition is closer to libertarianism, putting both it and conservatism on one side.

Right now I'm mostly editing the articles to be more factual, but still interesting to read. The "random Russian letters" part was removed from the Russia article already (and will be removed from the Communism article whenever I'll come to working on it, as I have a few more points in mind).
