User talk:Fxmastermind/about/tides

It's not surprising that somebody wants the page deleted. It doesn't matter that it is well sourced, impossible to refute, and truthful, accurate and open to expansion. Fxmastermind (talk) 01:02, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

From the deletion policy page
Disputes over page content are usually not dealt with by deleting the page, except in severe cases. The content issues should be discussed at the relevant talk page, and other methods of dispute resolution should be used first, such as listing on Wikipedia:Requests for comments for further input. Deletion discussions that are really unresolved content disputes may be closed by an uninvolved editor, and referred to the talk page or other appropriate forum.

Deletion or redirect
As expected, somebody either deleted or made a redirect out of the article. Of course there was no discussion of the article on the articles talk page. Just another "rule" that isn't enforced, or even enforceable. You can't make somebody contribute, discuss or add to wikipedia, you can only delete content. It's probably the biggest conundrum.

Copy Pasta
It looks like the entire article was just moved to the end of theory of tides, with a small, but erroneous caveat. 14:53, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
