Pynchonwiki.com can handle it all, "fact" and
"opinion" (if you see clear distinctions between the
two, which is not always easy).  "Discussion" pages
can be created as  place for longer entries related to
the Index items, and will naturally reflect the pov of
the writer or editor.  It's to be expected that some
discussion items will attract more passion than
others, depending on reader sensibilities and
interests.

Obviously a wiki works more like a bulletin board than
an email discussion, lacking the dynamic of back-and
forth conversation. That's why the wiki is better
suited as a research tool, imho.  It's easy to sit and
read Against the Day and look up stuff in the wiki
alphabetically (or by page), lots of definitions and
background info attached to Index items already -
compared to that, finding something that might be in
the Pynchon-l archives is a more time-consuming task.
