I replied to your comment over at Talk:Straight razor, & I'd prefer to keep the discussion there, as long as it remains on topic, that way other editors can weigh in with their opinions & we can better reach a consensus. If things start diverging from the article topic, then I think we should move the discussion, but until then, I think that is the best venue. --mordicai. 22:03, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, but I just made my reply to you. I am new to this and am not manuevering too well yet. Feel free to move it here and I will try to find it if necessary. I really doubt there is any reason to discuss further. Your knowledge in this area is very limited and yet you have the ultimate authority.
Happy New Year,
Lynn
- I don't know of any hard & fast rules regarding what discussion should go where, but I tend to prefer having any debates about content pertaining to an article kept on that article's talk page. If I could make an observation: you might do better not making assumptions about how knowledgable anyone is on a topic. Any way you cut it, on Wikipedia content reigns supreme, & personal authority (& appeals for & against it) carries very little weight. That is why citable edits are the oder of the day & original research is not allowed. As to my ultimate authority, I'm just an editor like yourself- I have no more authority in this matter than you; which is to say, it is only as good as my arguments. I don't want to discourage you from contributing, & you've shown that you can participate in a discussion rather than spam an article with your viewpoint, which is an important trait in an editor. The entire point of my responses to your edit has been to cite Wikipedia policy on appropriate content, which forums of any kind almost never are. If you'd like to form a better rebuttal, you might want to start by familiarizing yourself with Wikipedia:External links. If you feel that StraightRazorPlace warrents special exemption, make you case as to why. Happy New Year to you as well --mordicai. 23:53, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
Mordicai,
You have more than discouraged me. You know absolutely nothing regarding this subject and apply judgement and deed based on what ever you would like to call it. If you had done any research as suggested you might be enlightened. Knowing that will not be the case, I bid you a good life and I will not waste any further time with Wikipedia.
Thank you.
