Wikipedia is nice enough.
About Me
editI try to follow the guidelines, wherever I can. Not an expert at adding things though. But it really pisses me off whenever other people just delete the sites and facts I add, just because they don't think it's "notable" or some bullshit like that.
"Oh, a quick google search came up with very few hits, so I will now just delete this page you made instead of asking you to expand it!"
They can do us all a favor, and go delete themselves from the planet! (this is the main reason why I stopped adding things to Wikipedia - if not for these deletist pricks ruining everything, I would be on here every day!"
I've been a member of this site since 2007. Located in Copenhagen, Denmark, Europe. That makes it more than 15 years of (mostly passive) membership already. Time flies!

Thoughts on Wiki
editThis is a very good site, which isn't always perfect for seeking information, but usually is a good basis for knowledge. I've used this site for many things over the years, and I've tried to add important information when I see it. Kudos to the site, and the idea that anybody can add anything (original concept, that is - before all these ridiculous rules began to ruin the site).
But apart from the annoying deletists that always ruins hours of work from others, this place is pretty cool!

Once a Wikipedia article is deleted that you can't get at the history. A lot of people, including myself, put a lot of effort into maintaining that list. Now because of the Wikipedia zealots, all the information appears to be lost forever. This is no longer a community project, it's a bureaucratic black-hole. Hopefully things will change someday though.
Deleted Projects
edit- Various pictures, links to other sites, and TRUE information that is deleted for no obvious reason other than the typical "copyright infringement"-statement.. (which is total BS, as most companies would LOVE all the free advertising the internet can give)
- Rats: Night Of Terror - an interesting Italian horror-movie, which was deemed "not interesting" and deleted. WTF? The movie exists, and many people have seen it.. why delete FACT?? Wikipedia sucks balls.
If you find any of the remaining pictures I've bothered to upload, and you wanna tag it for deletion because of a poorly written "rationale", and if you wanna change the copyright, then DO IT YOURSELF! I'm not gonna bother doing anything with photographs on this site anymore.
I just found this picture, which illustrated the problem with wikipedia: Why bother finding a great picture (with POSSIBLE copyright), when you can take a paparazzi snapshot with a mobile-phone yourself, like this, for free: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Image:James_White_cropped.jpg - Yes, I know. It's a great picture, I'm sure nobody will sue us now. KnatLouie (talk) 23:48, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
