Supporters of the "establish context" rule include: [[user:Jimbo Wales|Jimbo Wales]], [[user:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]], [[user:Lee Daniel Crocker|LDC]], [[user:Tim Shell|Tim Shell]], [[user:Linus Tolke|Linus Tolke]], [[user:Janet Davis|Janet Davis]], [[user:drj|drj]] (strongly), [[user:Koyaanis Qatsi|Koyaanis Qatsi]], [[user:Gareth Owen|GWO]], [[user:Damian Yerrick|Damian Yerrick]], [[user:Tim Chambers|tbc]], [[user:AxelBoldt|AxelBoldt]], [[user:JHK|JHK]], [[user:Enchanter|Enchanter]], [[user:Tarquin|Tarquin]], [[user:Rotem Dan|Rotem Dan]] (strongly), [[User:168...|168...]] (strongly) [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality]] (strongly) Opponents include: 24 ---- 24 - no one does this. Look at [[ontology]], the worst example I know. People just say "this is that" and then proceed... some of the first paragraphs bother to set up context, but not many. So I don't like this as a rule, although I do it wherever I can. ----
