[jhvxccso] Transparent bias

For every Wikipedia article, provide an accompanying wiki page, similar to the Discussion page, that quickly informs a reader why not to trust the page.  In particular, explain why various parties are interested in slanting the article in a particular direction.

I'm hoping there won't be much controversy about the fact that there is controversy. Then, a lack of controversy could serve as an indicator that the article can be trusted (with regards to bias; it could be untrustable for other unbiased reasons, like the author was an idiot).

This could be started externally from Wikipedia.
