Michel,
I will be pre-occupied with "emergent" household maintainance issues
over the next few days, but I may have just enough time before the
plumber arrives to post a short note.
I did not succeed in convincing Larry Sanger that a strong tradition
of reflective internal criticism was the best way to avoid being buried
by external criticism in the long run, but here is a link to my last best
attempt to do that, copied from various fora of the Citizendium base camp
to the Wikipedia Review:

JA: Sadly, I think that the Citizendium model, despite 1 or 2 bug fixes,
remains undermined by Sanger's insistence on trying the fundaments of
the Wikipedia model all over again, namely, the peculiar mutations of
the norms of scholarship that we find in his ideas about NPOV, NOR, VER,
IAR, and so on down the (party) line.
MB: Dear Jon:
MB: Thanks for your precious insights.
MB: If you have any time at any point, I would like to invite you
to write some short piece about the relation between dialogue
and inquiry, a crucial point a believe, which I would like to
publish both in the blog and the governance section of our wiki.
MB: In addition, I would really appreciate a formal critique,
for lay persons, about the NPOV, NOR, VER, IAR, etc. and
what alternatives could be proposed in a hypothetical
wikipedia fork.
MB: Thanks for considering doing this!!
