| − | The original article said that if people don't speak English, that they should go to Anarchopedia:Syndicate and pick their language. But if they didn't speak English, THEY COULDN'T READ THAT MESSAGE. It also says to comply with the GFDL for other sites, but other sites don't necessarily support the GFDL. If a copyright holder doesn't want their content shared on other sources, it's illegal to plagiarize. So, I clarified both, as well as making... some other good edits.

| − | ::::::Although it might be an effective gimmick to use a reversed text appearance for the front page, to use this appearance theme globally will make it too difficult to use the site for hours at a time. (I've only read a few pages, and I already have a headache from the harsh appearance of the text - especially on the talk pages.) There is a reason why reversed text is used sparingly - it is simply too tiring to the human eye to look at reversed text for long periods of time.

| − | ::::::Computer screens used to have this appearance a few decades ago, but once it became feasible to show high contrast, black on white text, user interface designers, and later almost all users, quickly abandoned the bizarre-looking reverse text appearance en masse, and this apperance has now faded into obscurity. These days you only see this scheme in odd places - point of sale terminals used in discount stores, or in military installations that are stuck on the macho green on black thing. :)

If we have some serious attacks in the future, we can use our bots. There are a lot of such things on Wikipedia, which is not so open as Anarchopedia is. The problem here is delete permission to anyone. But, I think we should try this way ''some time''.

It uses a star like the current Anarchopedia logo but is a little more sophisticated. I'm happy to upload it if people like it and want to use it as the Anarchopedia logo. It's got an 'A' in it too, which I imagine could be played on no end. It could be any colour (the example below is a dark red) and I could cut it down to the just the symbol for the main logo and add "Anarchopedia" instead of "Anarchism" for a larger version.
