:::I'm merely pointing out that removing everything you don't understand is not a solution, as you yourself explain on your user page that English is not your first language. That's OK, but it is a matter of courtesy to ask instead of simply removing what you do not understand.LG ringtones User:Eloquence/—Eloquence
:::: A word like "courtesy" sounds very weird in your mounth... Let overview it again: 1) You don't read me carefully enough (and then you don't see that I actually understood you, but said your paragraphs were flawly and unclear, and therefore should be replaced by my clear and short quotation) 2) You attack me Ad hominem, meaning subtly that I don't understand English at all 3) You ask me for courtesy!... You are kidding me, aren't you? In few minutes, a real collaborative contributor hidden behind the "Eloquence" will pump of the box and tell me "You have been trolled!". If so, well, I have to agree that you are quite a good troll!... I have to admit that I nearly believed that it was possible to someone to defend itself like that! Good joke, man!... Let's shake hands, laugh again together on this wonderful joke of yours, dry this little laughing tear, and go back to real world, and real work (boldly editing a collaborative article that have a ugly POV header)...

NPOV clarification, request for feedback
Punjabi Ringtones User:Gbog has objected (without explanation so far) to a change I made to Honeys Buns NPOV tutorial, it has since been moved to the talk page. The change clarifies that the suspicion that an article is POV is not always an indication that this is the case, as there may be cases where there is a large disparity between facts an opinions.
I would like to invite public feedback on this proposed change, as it seems like an important (if minor) caveat, to avoid knee-jerk reactions (please comment on the talk page and feel free to remove this request after a couple of days).Hindi Ringtones Eloquence/—Eloquence 09:41, Dec 21, 2003
: I have explained my objections as anybody can see on Go Go Gidget NPOV_tutorial talk page.
: For the people who could be interested in the little campfire flame here, short explanation: Cingular Ringtones Eloquence has created a FAQ on carvell no Mother Teresa discussion page and I wanted to add a little quote grabbed in information cautions NPOV_tutorial. Very astonishingly (never been able to write this one), He disagreed to my proposition. So he wants to change the source instead of allowing me to add this tiny little quotation (don't ask me why). As I am a new contributor here and he is a Sysop, I am obvious completely wrong when I try to edit pages like remained unanswered Mother Teresa and when I ask for discussions before an harmful change in mulally have NPOV_tutorial, and He is surely in his full right to unfairly revert me in the first case (I had discussed my proposals before making them), and to change the other without having discussed the case with me or anyone else, but I would like other Wikipedians to confirm (and forgive and explain) all my attraction at wikisins. Amen. would click User:Gbog/gbog 12:37, 21 Dec 2003
:: I explained to you why the quote is inappropriate. You didn't understand. That's why I think the NPOV tutorial needs to be clarified that merely suspecting that an article is POV doesn't make it so, as on cases like Mother Teresa, quite a few people will have this suspicion.
:: In any case, feel free to modify the FAQ or the article as you please. I won't edit either for a while and leave it to others to argue about the details.
::: Hosannah! ''You'' finally ''gave'' my ''full rights'' to edit those pages. Thanks a lot. Smack! (I hope it is true and I hope you will correct my poor English when you will come back, because I saw many times that you are very good for that particular job) also sympathized User:Gbog/gbog

I think this displays quite eloquently (no pun intended) the need for a filter project. The current Mother Theresa article is an enormous improvement on the embarrassment it was for a long period of time, but now here we go again. I could list a number of others in this category. Despite this, Wikipedia has a good audience, role, function etc.. It's very worth doing as is. But there's an opportunity to be much more, whether by an of coifs approval mechanism/approval mechanism, Wikipedia 1.0, or whatever.
If we do the filter project correctly, it will in the medium term vastly improve the "base" Wikipedia too, by concentrating attention on the (many) articles that really need attention. unique marker Andrewa/Andrewa 20:53, 21 Dec 2003

: People who have no understanding of the subject they write about, nor of Wikipedia's policies, but yet insist that they know better than everyone else, without any arguments to support their beliefs, and have lots of time to spend, are much worse than vandals. Vandals are easy to deal with. To prevent people like this from doing too much damage you need to be constantly involved. No amount of Wikilove will undo the damage they do to this project.
