This is not a regular essay, nor is it a humorous essay. In reality, this is mbz1's crafty, creative retelling of her conflict with another user, Betsythedevine, at the AN/I board, at Improper image added. I am trying to comprehend just what goes on in a person's mind where they think that enshrining some wiki-conflict into project-space is acceptable behavior, but I am at a loss, quite honestly. This "essay" needs to be deleted, and a discussion begun at AN/I if this creation warrants further action. Tarc (talk) 00:17, 2 June 2011 (UTC) *Keep According to the definition of "Essays are the opinion or advice of an editor or group of editors, for which widespread consensus has not been established. They do not speak for the entire community and may be created and written without approval. " So, this essays expressed my and another editor's opinion. There are definitely no any real user mentioned in this essay. If somebody sees himself as a prototype for this essay so it be, but it not a reason to delete it.--Mbz1 (talk) 00:35, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

  • I am going to go out on a limb and say that the "essays are the opinion or advice of..." aspect of essay creation refers to opinions that actually have something to do with editing in the Misplaced Pages itself. Your interpretation would essentially turn project-space into a blog. Tarc (talk) 00:51, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
  • DELETE per the noms reasoning. Serves no useful purpose except to inflame the situation mentioned. Heiro 00:37, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete Serves no useful purpose, other than to clearly indicate why so many other editors have difficulty working with Mbz1. Dayewalker (talk) 00:44, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete as disruptive nonsense, lacking humor. Adding cliches like "any resemblance to persons living or dead is purely coincidental" make the point very clear, while "harpy" is just an attack as we all know the intended victim. Johnuniq (talk) 01:25, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. WP:DR is thataway; this seems to verge on WP:POINT violation. --John (talk) 01:33, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Clearly not a bona fide essay. --Kleinzach 01:40, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete, no real value to WP, and violates AGF. --Nuujinn (talk) 01:43, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
