Votes in favor of SD.net lead by a fair margin. No worries. The vote is almost over as it is.

On second thought, given my sexual orientation and the imagery you've been using, that might not be such a good idea...
A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

Wiki policy is that VfDs should not occur within a short time period after a previous one as it should have the same result (and as it was obviously a keep it would remain a keep). Somehow the 2 months since the last VfD has gone just barely into the enough time has passed category.Pcm979 wrote:Is there a time period where they can't VFD it, or could they put it up again tomorrow, hypothetically?

Maybe this win will give us a mandate to make the article better without fear that the new stuff will be deleted?

I'd say its not so much "forums" as it is, but rather posts. There's the "top of page" forums, ST, SW, OSF, Fantasy, and fanfics. Then there's Art&Photos which has alot of scifi-fantasy images. SLAM blurs the line alot also. I think its only "a third" if you count usergroups.

I've seen this thing added and taken away:

Do we want that line there?Also due to the nature of the board. the merits of a position or the strength of a side are more typically determined by the prevailing politics of the board than by actual argumentation.

We should modify it slightly, but as a NPOV statement it is valid. Popularity can still decide who wins more often then the truth. Its part of group think.
How about
"Also do to the nature of the board, some believe the merits of a position or the strength of a side are determined more often by the prevailing politics of the board rather than by actual debate and discussion"

Why the hell do people keep attacking sites I like that are listed on Wikipedia?
This site and another one based around a nationsim run there (Superpower Classic) have both come under attack and possible deletion on Wikipedia. If you clean up and expand the article they will have nothing to argue about. Double its size (and not with junk but real info) and they'll have to drop it.

I used to think that it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe. ~Marcus Cole, Babylon 5

Pay attention. The vote ended. Look in the discussion page. The VFD got archived.

Someone just tried posting a VFD on the SD.net entry again. However the idiot managed to post the original VFD which was already closed. He also ignored the fact that the article survived two VFDs, one less then a month ago. Removed the VFD tag. Hopefuly he gets the picture.

Oh look at this jerk who has put us up for deletion. Our community is evidently not good enough, but apparently his article on 'reality based community' actually serves a meaningful purpose.
