==Large scale deletions without consensus== | |||
Misplaced Pages as a community has rules to prevent edit wars. | |||
One of these is the ] rule. | |||
If you wish to delete large passages of another editor's work without providing any references, it is more polite to discuss your proposed changes on the article's talk page FIRST. | |||
If you do not, your excisions may be regarded as vandalism. | |||
Please proceed immediately to ] and discuss your point of view (POV) with fellow editors there before reverting this article again. | |||
If you do not, you run the risk of being blocked from Misplaced Pages. | |||
You may find that ] provides some helpful guidance. Thank you for your anticipated compliance.] 16:38, 8 April 2007 (UTC) |

ThanksThank you for informing me about the case with the article about internet trolls. ellol 11:11, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
new articleI do not have the text of the old article on Internet trolls, or of the process that deleted it, so I cannot compare. could you please send me the links--thanks DGG 04:23, 7 April 2007 (UTC) I do not have access to the deleted version of the article on internet troll squads either. I may have posted in the DRV, but I don't remember the article well enough to be able to recognize whether or not this is one and the same. If and only if the page is either the same article renamed or extremely similar to it, tag it with {{db-g4|Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Internet troll squads}} as a reposting of deleted content. I'm afraid that if he's completely rewritten it, you will probably have to drag it through AfD again. This looks to me to be a more substantive article, and though I am unable at this time to go check it thoroughly for quality and presence of original research as I am about to go to bed, 14 sources isn't bad. If it is as bad as the other one was but different, it is sure to fail AfD again anyway. I'm sure if you found an administrator he'd be able to offer more specific advice because he could see the article that was deleted. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.--Dycedarg ж 04:45, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
