I find it odd how the Ubuntu help wiki suggests mailing list and/or IRC discussions in order for something to be changed [1] since this is not normal for a wiki. I'm guessing that newcomers completely miss this guidance principle. Invoking the Ubuntu Code of Conduct is also heavy-handed for a wiki.
As for the current discussion, any topic that generates this level of passion should probably reside in the actual documentation where peer reviews are integral to the editing process.
