A potential drawback to measuring and publishing a <i>Most Controversial Nodes</i> list would be that of encouraging controversy for controversy's sake.
</p>
<p>
I enjoy as much as the next monk heated discussions, debate, and especially the multiplicity of viewpoints, opinions, and experiences that folks bring to the Monastery. But I moreso enjoy Perl Monks as an oasis of civil, considerate behavior amidst the often rude and flaming desert that is the Internet.
</p>
So my guess is that the interesting info and feedback that <i>Most Controversial Nodes</i> would provide could easily be overshadowed by negative impact. KnowwhatImeanVerne?
