Re: Soy cheese, Djk3

[edit]

Hi there, and welcome to wikipedia. I've checked out your contributions and it appears that you might have some misconceptions about how things work here. First, it's practice on wikipedia to assume good faith of other editors. That means that you don't revert things as "vandalism" as you did here, without evidence that it's actually vandalism. This also means that you don't make accusations that people are engaging in secret campaigns to destroy articles as you did here. Next, it is policy on wikipedia not to engage in personal attacks as you did here ("maybe you need help from a doctor", "What a weakly little jerk you are"). Finally, it's bad practice to canvas a bunch of user talk pages with accusations as you did here. With respect to the actual soy cheese article, it does strike me as a bit advertizing-ish, but I recognize that it can be hard to write an article about things which exist, but which are not widely written about besides on the webpage of the producer. You will have to learn to collaborate better with other editors, especially on contentious subjects and not resort to accusing them of vandalism. KellenT 12:20, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am not forced to stay in the Wikipedia or to contribute or anything if you can (yourself or asking any other trusted editors) ensure that this article will prevail/grow/improve and not being constantly deleted/rewritten to the form of an almost useless stub (that's exactly what this "editor" did, and I consider this as vandalism).
Wikipedia is one of the 10 most popular/known pages on the entire internet, and this is creating some unwanted frictions (like certain special interest groups "editing" unwanted articles partially down to invisibility/insignificance).
This article needs monitoring by several vegan editors. It is probably even one of those, which should be semi of fully protected. There is a huge controversy over milk and lactose intolerance going on, and the article on milk has been protected already long time ago.
If this one user shows any kind of contribution to the article, fine. But so far I have seen only reverting and deleting and rewriting into a stub-form, contrary to all the other contributors in this case. This seems fairly strange, considering all other circumstances (he claims to be a vegan, the article is very small and needing positive improvements, it is a subject of great interest for vegans, there is a huge controversy around dairy cheese/factory farming/lactose going on with a lot of really big companies involved fearing declining profits).
I greatly miss a semi-protection for people, who do not use the DEL button. Especially in serious articles. And a consensus about monitoring of articles by people, who actually contribute to the given subject positively and in a constructive way.
