Idiot editors at Urban Dictionary or what?

OK, So I've had a few words or phrases published on UD. I find it mostly a place where young kids can put rude, tacky, and obscene definitions, but other times it's interesting, fun, even informative.

Why is it that soooo many worthless "words" can make it past the editors, and when I spend time making a thoughtful, credible, somewhat humorous submission, it gets denied?

There are so many entries such as a specific persons name, with a definition like: the hottest girl who will give any guy a *J.

But when I add a credible, historic definition which I may spend 10-15 minutes composing, it is rejected.

They will let anybody edit submissions. I've done it, And it is up to one lame idiot what goes through or not. And the lame idiot editors seem to like anything which is total trash, and a waste of space.

They really need a bit more oversight with the editors. Any ideas?

    Replace "Urban Dictionary" with "wikipedia" in your question, and you've solved another mystery of life.
