I've had enough of this. It seems abundantly clear to me now that Misplaced Pages, despite its noble objective, doesn't work. There are too many people where whose mission is not to create an encyclopedia of verifiable information. Their mission is to insert what they believe to be truth with no regard for any requirements such as verifiability and no originial research. They work by repeating the same claims in 1-2 line posts, ignoring all calls for reliable sources (because they have none).
{{notice|Here's what's going to happen:

*I'll no longer be taking part in AfD discussions unless they relate to articles concerning Denmark, ''narrowly interpreted''. I'll restrict myself to making one comment per AfD.
*I'm withdrawing from all discussions related to economics, ''broadly interpreted''.
*I'll focus on articles related to higher education in Denmark as they are in a poor state and need improvement.


The thing is though, unlike the hordes of POV pushers here I actually have a professional life outside Misplaced Pages. I don't ''need'' Misplaced Pages. It's not the center of my universe. I didn't join Misplaced Pages to push any opinion or to prove myself. I don't need to. Just because you manage to get something to stick in an article here doesn't make it so. What matters is what is found in reliable sources. If you can't understand that then frankly I pity you because you fail to understand the difference between winning at Internet posting (being a Wikipedian) and having sufficient knowledge about a subject to have a professional career or at least a relevant educational background.
If, despite these efforts, you came here to complain about your POV not being sufficiently represented or to template me for vandalism when I'm enforcing policy please don't. It upsets me far more than it helps. Use the article talk page to state your opinion and I'll most likely just walk away from that article rather than bother to get into a fight with you. You don't need to create armies of sockpuppets to achieve that and you don't need to bait me on my talk page. A simple statement on the article talk page declaring your intentions will be enough. You may also read my essay ] to understand why I probably won't be interested in a debate with you. Thanks.}}

Hi,<br>
Thankyou for notifying me. Just FYI, it's usually considered good form to notify a closing admin of your objections ''before'' taking these things to DRV, I would have been quite happy to relist or have a neutral third party review the decision. In fact, the DRV instructions clearly state that "Deletion Review is to be used where someone is unable to resolve the issue in discussion with the administrator (or other editor) in question. This should be attempted first – courteously invite the admin to take a second look". I'm not particularly upset about this, but I would recommend trying a friendly discussion first next time, it generally results in a whole lot less bother and mess for everyone, including you.

I've had enough of this. It seems abundantly clear to me now that Misplaced Pages, despite its noble objective, doesn't work. There are too many people where whose mission is not to create an encyclopedia of verifiable information. Their mission is to insert what they believe to be truth with no regard for any requirements such as verifiability and no originial research. They work by repeating the same claims in 1-2 line posts, ignoring all calls for reliable sources (because they have none).

The thing is though, unlike the hordes of POV pushers here I actually have a professional life outside Misplaced Pages. I don't need Misplaced Pages. It's not the center of my universe. I didn't join Misplaced Pages to push any opinion or to prove myself. I don't need to. Just because you manage to get something to stick in an article here doesn't make it so. What matters is what is found in reliable sources. If you can't understand that then frankly I pity you because you fail to understand the difference between winning at Internet posting (being a Wikipedian) and having sufficient knowledge about a subject to have a professional career or at least a relevant educational background.

The above polemic about "verifibabiity and no original research" is laughable considering this substantial addition of unsourced personal opinion to an article. You don't need Misplaced Pages?? Misplaced Pages doesn't need you. Sundayclose (talk) 15:50, 21 May 2016 (UTC)
