The term and special field of studies was created [...] as an alternative to the technocratic centrally planned economy.

As an alternative to centrally planned city design, that should probably be.

Ah, one of the many problems with Wikipedia.

Not only has it been edited, it's been locked. Not because people keep adding the "(right)" back, but over the description of the penguin as "indifferent." It turns out the penguin was not merely indifferent; it was greatly opposed and may have been tethered in place for the shot, which has lead to a small edit war about whether or not the penguin should be described as captive (and additional sources added to support that fact), indifferent (as per the currently used sources), or not at all (because descriptions of a random penguin add no information to the article).

Wikipedia, ladies and gentlemen.

Reminds me of the edit wars over Lord Uxbridge's Leg.

The ONE TRUE CAPTION to a picture was "Lord Uxbridge's leg (left), seen here attached to Lord Uxbridge"
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.
