Wikipedians are struggling with finding a "neutral" / "objective" answer to this one. I also gave my standard "WP:Canvassing is a stupid policy" speech: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=447912187 |

The deletion appears to be perfectly justified, and two other sysops reaffirmed Jiang's decision. |

(IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/wink.gif) The point was that the gaming on commons affects Wikipedia too, and it's easier for people to influence the names' of such etc there due to there being less activity, less oversight, and a much smaller pool of admins - it's the same thing as on Meta, it's baiscally how Wikipedia was, 7 years ago or something - there's been a lot of discussion about that lately: Wikipedia:Ignore_Meta (T-H-L-K-D) |
