Working the system
This page merely muddies the water for users of wikipedia. Its suggestions, esp. the first, would potentially make people who simply politely state that a person should familiarize themselves with wikipedia policy are in violation of it. See my post to Village pump (policy) or the reaction of the user who created this page, User talk:NPOVenforcer to being asked to familiarize themselves with policies like NPA for an idea of what this could lead too.

 * Delete. Deceptive page apparently created to try to make some kind of point. --cesarb 21:39, 11 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete or redirect to WP:POINT. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 22:05, 11 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete it is an example of a violation of WP:POINT, but I can hardly see how someone looking for it would type Working the system. Just delete. Jules LT 22:10, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Can I call a Speedy on grounds of A6? Especially as the writer has been permablocked for disruption? Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 23:39, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Techically, he was blocked for his username, but Delete nonetheless.--Sean|Bla ck 00:35, 12 November 2005 (UTC)


 * It has to be said that much of what this user has written on that page is true. Userify it. Pcb21| Pete 12:12, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:POINT. Xoloz 17:32, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or Userify it, either way. &mdash; Saxifrage | &#9742; 21:06, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or Userify -- Jmabel | Talk 21:18, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete userfying would be somewhat pointless since the user who created this has been indefinitely blocked. Jtkiefer  T - 21:20, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete then redirect to Don't disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point, like Gaming the system does. Thryduulf 12:49, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete I think the kinds of things that are described happen to a very minor degree, and it is usually quite transparent. --Rogerd 04:38, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
