COMPARINGAPPLESTOAPPLES


"Essay" created to support an argument in an AfD (Articles for deletion/ChucK). Besides being rather pointy, this two liner hardly seems a useful essay. Crusio (talk) 00:18, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
 * If some reliable and independent source (like an academic book written by someone not related to the author of X) writes that "X is popular/notable/well-known", does that really count for nothing? Also, I didn't know where to ask this but since you are disputing my essay, perhaps you can clarify the meaning of "significant coverage" as used in Wikipedia? An entire book written about the topic by someone else? What if the book is written by the author of X? An entire chapter written by someone else? A magazine article written by someone else? How many words/pages are needed? FuFoFuEd (talk) 00:33, 26 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete, also seems to misrepresent WP:OTHER. --Nuujinn (talk) 00:29, 26 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete. Completely pointless and deceptive.   Msnicki (talk) 00:58, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Userfy to User:FuFoFuEd/COMPARINGAPPLESTOAPPLES as a disputed single-author essay. Delete the shortcut.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:55, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
 * As pointed out below, there is already a userspace version. Delete all versions and shortcuts in project space, leaving exactly one in userspace.  Duplicating/forking material, even within userspace, is undesirable.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:58, 26 May 2011 (UTC)


 * I apologize for creating multiple copies. I didn't know how to delete them myself. FuFoFuEd (talk) 21:45, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Use db-author for anything anywhere that is entirely your own doing. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:52, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment. There's also a redirect from COMPARINGAPPLESWITHAPPLES. Probably no need to userfy anything as he already has another copy at User:FuFoFuEd/Comparing apples with apples.  Msnicki (talk) 04:34, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
