# '''We want to make sure NETwiki is accessible and well organized.''' It is not in the spirit of a wiki to allow an individual to make an incoherent decision using this tool; editors and content creators must be empowered to participate in the way the information system is organized. For that reason, PBEM will exercise some mild control on design and NETwiki's overall organization. PBEM will also set standards for who qualifies as a NETwiki contributor.
