I have experienced and observed Collects editorial style first hand at Sara Palin during the months of the 2008 Presidential campaign...and elsewhere throughout the last year. I would characterize that his chosen editing style appears Oppresive and highly over-bearing. His actions, his stances, his positions and pronouncements rarely if ever seem to illuminate or amplify what is missing in any editing situation. To be in conflict with Collect (or opposition to Collect) is to enter a precarious world where it seems that fact, ficticious concensus [[1]] and mis-information become so intertwined that extracting a nugget of truth is almost impossible.
Often he gloats....."If I were King......." and then presents some oblique, dictitorial solution for a minor editing problem. I have yet to experience pleasure when attemting to collaborate with Collect. It is always TEDIOUS. Wikipedia is a labor of LOVE. Working with or around Collect brings out the opposite emotion.
