Response
[edit]I know it exists, too. But the problem is, there's no documentation on it. There are no studies about it. There is nothing to cite, and there is nothing to indicate its importance. There's not even a name for it- you had to make one up. It's the same as if I made an article on that feeling you get when you're walking upstairs and you think there's one more step but there's not and your foot falls through empty air. In writing about it, there's no referenced information we have to go on. Basically, everything in the article would be original research. Don't let this discourage you from creating more articles- it's just tough when we want to write about something and we come across an obstacle like this. ALI nom nom 18:34, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- Well, you've got to understand, Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. It's an encyclopedia. But... you could create your own wiki here. ALI nom nom 19:29, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- Oh, only admins can delete pages. But all you have to do is comment on the deletion discussion here and say you want it deleted as the article's creator. Have fun on your own wiki! ALI nom nom 21:06, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- That is a very personal question, isn't it? :) Not that I can remember. I might've when I was a toddler, but I don't sleepwalk. ALI nom nom 21:20, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
