:::: As does my Wikipedia user page (although I'm a "normal" editor, not an administrator).
:::: The problem with Wikipedia (well, ''one'' of its problems), is that the overt Christians, and particularly the creationists, are subjected to abuse and harassment. What happens next depends on how they react to that, particularly given that they often get 'pounced on', so that they feel that they are a lone voice in a sea of bigotry. Many react badly, firing abuse back, losing their temper, etc. ''This'' is what gets them banned. If, however, they keep their cool and put reasoned arguments, they will still get harassment and abuse in return, but they won't get banned. At least going on my observations and experience.
