Blanking pages
Please don't blank pages. It's confusing to readers. It's also usually considered vandalism, and has made the deletion process for the page pretty messy. See, removing the prod notice is considered an objection to the deletion...and you removed that. Then someone restored it...prod is for uncontroversial deletions, so it shouldn't be restored, but page-blanking doesn't look like an objection...then it was blanked again, and again restored...very messy. I may move it to Articles for deletion for discussion. Please understand that removing the text isn't the same as deleting the article. It's like if you erased the words off a piece of paper versus throwing the paper away. Only on Wikipedia the words are always retrievable. NickelShoe 06:35, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
