What is going on with this article is the nature of how the entire Wikipedia site works. Anyone can contribute to an article, or edit the contributions of others.

Thorwald is a major contributor to that article, but there have been many other contributors. The COG page has been around for about two years, starting out with a very simple description that grew into what it is now.

Last night when I looked at the page, a Pro-COG editor had deleted the quotes from "Summit Jewels", where Maria says that some sexual activity with children is not wrong. He was claiming copyright infringement. I mentioned that under "Fair Use", I believed that the quotes could be used. So, that is in the process of being put back in.

I stand amazed that in the face of all this editing, the article is still as informative as it is.
