Wikipedia is like a subgraph of the internet. Are there good reasons for certain sites to be blocked on the net? Yes? Should I just be allowed to call you a stupid plucktwit as if I was f'in Linus Torvalds (just for illustration purposes (psyched, I'm really enjoying this(I'm not even making the turn around to illustrate the analogy to Wikipedia any further)))?
I guess deletion also serves to keep editors in check, if they don't meet quality standards. It's simply more difficult to delete a deletion-privileged user who has also a number of contributions under the belt. This is similar to police corruption, or shirky's principle.
- thriftwy 9y agoNo, there are no good reasons for sites to be blocked on the net. Also no reason for valid articles to be deleted from Wikipedia. I am against corruption and this is awful. Nobody should be reasoning this.
- posterboy 9y agoif you try to censor the censors you can only loose. corolarily, it would be nice if there were no censors.
