* [[Defictionalization]]: Wikipedia has proven ''itself'' correct [http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/02/10/2211220 at least once].
* [[Digital Piracy Is Evil]]: Apparently [http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_upshot/20100803/od_yblog_upshot/fbi-will-fight-valiantly-to-protect-the-integrity-of-its-seal-from-internet-encyclopedians FBI threatened to sue Wikipedia for using its logo].

** Copyright is [[Serious Business]] on Wikipedia. Text copied from a website without permission will be deleted in seconds. An image with invalid copyright information, or one which has not been released under an appropriate license, will be deleted [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|unless it has a fair use rationale]]. [[Digital Piracy Is Okay|Wikipedia doesn't really pursue copyrights of their own, however.]]
* [[Drive-By Updater]]: In an odd twist, even useful drive-by-edits are sometimes reverted.
