Speedy Deletions
Objectivity is not a requirement at Wikiversity, and lack of objectivity is not a valid Deletions option. Please learn more about our community before nominating additional pages for deletion. Let me know if you have any questions. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 00:01, 5 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Hello Dave and sorry about this.
 * The author of the page that I nominated for speedy deletion is Nobody60, and I noticed that he has written a lot of very personal articles on this website.
 * For example, in the article Yoga and christianity, he dedicated a whole section to himself, and usually express his own views on a topic.
 * He has a handful of other pages almost entirely written by him with a strong emphasis on himself, which look more like a blog than a wiki.
 * I found out that there is an essay resource type on wikipedia (see this), but these are preceded by a warning panel indicating clearly that they are essays and not articles.
 * Is it allowed to write such articles on wikiversity? Maybe the solution would be to mark these as essays, if such an option is available. I didn't find a clear answer on the help pages.
 * Thank you for your disponibility.
 * Edit: Actually some of his articles are essays (example)

 * Blogs and essays are allowed at Wikiversity. Feel free to add the tag if you like. Thanks! -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 18:29, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
