Wikia or Citizendium agrees to write this article for us, ensuring no COI. So, in the meantime, I suggest we simply delete it. SD0001 (talk) 06:12, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply

  • Comment This page has more than 5000 revisions. Hence, this would need a steward to delete. SD0001 (talk) 06:17, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep + delete this deletion discussion because this defies all logic. Zeke Essiestudy (talk) 11:24, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment. It doesn't exactly "defy all logic". Consider: If a notable person writes a biography, the chapters reflect segments of the person's life. Readers are interested in those. Are readers interested in a chapter devoted to the biographer's experience writing the biography? No. (Do you know of any biography containing chapter: "The Writing of My Biography"?) Likewise, readers are interested in what Wikipedia has to say about topics: the encyclopedia's articles. And an article *on* Wikipedia itself corresponds to a biographer including chapter in her/his biography, about the writing of the biography. (Not what readers want. Not particularly interesting. And not at all the purpose. [It's like bending a magnifying glass in order to magnify and inspect itself.]) IHTS (talk) 11:42, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
