The OTW, with the wiki and the Journal, are going to be spaces to work on the contextualization of fandom. This contextualization is what is going to protect our culture, yes, but it will make the space as a whole problematic.

That's fair, although it's my understanding that in the name of intellectual freedom the Journal wiill be operating almost completely independently of the org, and as thus will not speak for the org. Also, since a journal is multi-authored, it won't have only one perspective; I trust and kbusse to publish people they disagree with, for example.

I really don't know anything about the wiki--the org hasn't said very much about it yet, have they?--but ideally the nature of a wiki means that even if the people who own the servers have an agenda, it wouldn't find its way into the content, because everyone would be welcome to serve as editors. Of course, the world isn't always as wonderful as the ideal, so we'll just have to wait and see. But still, it's probably safer in the hands of a non-profit organization than in just those of one person; there'll be sure to be some checks and balances.
