 What   happened  on  Wikipedia  ?

They deleted my Devil's Bit Sessions page without warning, with the justification that it was a non-notable album by non-notable performers.

I'm 100% sure they'll delete O Christmas tree again if the same auditor is the one that reviews it. After all, it doesn't have songs with billion hits on YouTube, so it must be irrelevant, right?

I get that they need to prevent people from posting their own home-made albums on there, but I do think they should have more respect for content providers and the things that those content providers take the time to provide. Or maybe they'd just prefer to see how complete a resource Wikipedia is if we just let them do all their articles themselves. Good luck with a few hundred people writing 5,548,444 articles.  Roll Eyes

What's the most ridiculous about it is that they didn't even fully delete the page, per say. They erased the content of the article and replaced it with a redirect tag back to Mairead Nesbitt's page. What was the point of that?

Anyways, I'm probably going to go into Mairead's article and add the most relevant stuff about the album (as my own humble opinion as a superfan / expert as to what's relevant in this subject area, thank you very much, Wikipedia).  Angry

Oh, here's an interesting fact:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Size_of_Wikipedia

Wikipedia continues to grow, and the number of articles in Wikipedia is increasing by over 20,000 a month. The number of articles added to Wikipedia every month reached its maximum in 2006, at over 50,000 new articles a month, and has been slowly but steadily declining since then.

Hmm. Why could that be? Perhaps because the auditors are starting to make content providers feel like they're wasting their time writing all these articles only to have them removed?

  I  totally  get  it.  "Relevant"  is  such  a  subjective term  to  begin  with.  it  all  starts  with  the  editors  personal bias.  They  should  have  least  given  your  offering  a  chance  to  develope.

Yes, or possibly flagged it as "hey, is this really relevant" instead of just removing the content.

Oh well. I'll just add the most important info to Mairead's Wikipedia page at some point this week. But so help me, if they mess with Mairead's main page, the one's getting Bit by the Devil will be the auditors.  Roll Eyes

The local ACLU is investigating our local police dept. for handing out BOGUS seat belt citations.....not good when the ACLU says "they appear to have a neat little scam operation going on over there".....not in this day and age of cell phone videos.....BUSTED!!! Angry
