You're one of them. You're not neutral at all.

That doesn't meant that I, myself, cannot write a neutral article.

(I probably can't do it with proper grammar, though. 8I)

i mean why did i went to college for after all i mean really was that a waste or something i spent like an entire session of philosophy learning about neutrality and whatnot that was some real bullshit okay but yknow

I was gonna tell you how you dont Need "neutral" people (what ever you think that is) to create a wiki page but just people who can reach a concencus on whether some things are true or not, amid all the other things that they disagree on.

Then I remembered you're a sort of shaved monkey who acts solely on instinct and who thinks neutrality is achieved by one side censoring everything the other side says.

Because I don't actually do stuff in-game or with them, I suppose.

Not sure who runs the wiki. It's not the admins. Admins don't recognize wiki as an official source of Disco lore and nothing sourced directly from it can be used in any case. It's entirely up to whomever runs wiki to let in whichever content they want.

Now, I'm not (one of) the personal author(s) of the article, but I believe that, at the very least, a Neutral Point of View article should be allowed about them, and that the author(s) and editor(s) of the original article should be informed of such.

Y'know, instead of mindlessly deleting everything without a notice, as is right now.

Good delete it and then again and again then delete it again.

This is correct - the Wiki is not an Admin responsibility. However, despite the content not being moderated for official use, since it is still hosted on the Discovery GC domain, it is still a server resource and thus the primary Wiki Admins include Server Admins.

http://discoverygc.com/wiki/index.php?title=Special%3AListUsers&username=&group=sysop&limit=50

So, by extension, if certain content is deemed to be inappropriate for the forums, it's probably not going to be permitted on the Wiki either.

The fact that you want to write an article on Doj's butt buddies and the negative oorp activities that they do and that you condone isn't just preposterous, but has no relevance at all to Discovery Lore. Perhaps if these dickheads actually roleplayed 'Lane Hackers' it might have some credibility. Instead it's a story about a submariner who cannot advance in his career because he is a loud mouthed retard who has been denied promotions three times because he simply is a dick.

Then you've got Doj, who had a girlfriend leave him because he too is a pretentious bubble blower with no other sane way of dealing with rejection other than to try to make everyones else lives a misery. It's ok Doj, you'll find you're place in life. Hopefully it's under the soil, not on top of it.

Then there's you, Harry. Sporting a male name while pretending to be female. Trying to roleplay your ex-girlfriend Doj?

I haven't shaved in months. Except down there. I guess you're half right. At least my lady hasn't seen the light and left me yet.

I never did quite say that I'd wanna write an article for them, simply pointed out that I probably had the ability to do such a thing. Never said it was on my own will, in the end.
