I know this guy very well ;)
Yes ? :-)
I never was against the topic. The day I deleted it
(a long time ago
for me), it was unintentionnaly. Aoineko reverted it
as soon as I told
him (15 seconds later) and that's the reason why he
was the apparent
author of the article, if my memory is clear. I am
accountable
for that, and that's the only time I did such a
thing.
You know what really get me at a loss here ?
How could you delete that article since you are no
admin ???
Sometimes, some questions are better left unasked...
[...]
"an '''apple''' is a [[fruit]]"
So, why can this one be acceptable as a stub, but
an
article on bresilian swimming suit not be ?
There is quite more information in the apple stub.
That is the reason why we use discussion page and
mailing list : to come
to an agreement. I think and said that the 10K
article objective have
induced a lower average quality. My opinion is
quality is a better
way to promote wikipedia than quantity. Being the
1st, 2nd or 10th
wikipedia is a weaker motivation than trying to
write accurate and
well written article.
I see no disagreement here between the two of us.
I entirely agree with this. Remind me of the times I
had to battle to keep the integrity of some long
articles by editors who wanted to take the opportunity
of a long article to increase the page counter :-)
Given the fact we have time, and no constraint to
publish at a given
deadline and we claim to be an encyclopedia, where
the focus should
really be for you : having 10K articles and a lot of
craps, or 5K
articles with a minimum standard of
quality/information?
Who are you trying to convince here ? Me ?
Me, who got mad and impolite at some editors for doing
redirects or stubs rather than deleting a truely
non-existant article ?!? LOL
I am not supporting keeping "stubs", I am supporting
keeping "topics".
And notice you are trying to divert the discussion.
What you appear to disagree with is stubs and poor
practice of artificially increase the article number.
Not necessary swimming suits :-)
Anyway Ant, as long as we don't have an agreement,
I
will
not do anything else than complain ;).
Sure. No prob. But, what are you exactly disagreeing
with ? Removal of superfluous hair practices or
"esquisses-stubs" ???

Psychology. Mind over matter. Mind under matter?
It doesn't matter.
Never mind.
Hum...I preferred the previous quote...never mind
Amicalement
Ant (actuellement en plein baby sitting...pour de
l'informatique...je suis maudite, maudite)
