Well, if people feel that there is a space for Wikipedia in these devotionals, and others that there is not, there is no middle ground, and therefore what is there to discuss?
Why shouldn't they be in the encyclopedia? Because they make Wikipedia look bad. People look at these articles and say, "How can they claim to be a serious encyclopedia when they have articles about how someone is beloved by their dog?"

Is your opinion the same as Gareth's that further discussion is
worthless? I hope not, and I hope he'll change his mind about that,
too.
I'm interested in hearing about just *why* you think such articles
"have no place on Wikipedia". What's the harm? How does it
negatively impact us?
