After being vandalized over 160 times, this page has been semi-protected to reduce the amount of time admins and other RC-patrollers have to spend reverting vandalism on it. This is not meant to discourage any legitimate registered users from editing it. I welcome any improvement to this page!

Est omnino difficile iudicare inclusionis meritum cuiusdam rei in encyclopædia cum ratio sciendi quid populi referat incerta sit, sed nihilominus aliquid encyclopædiam dedecet

It is generally difficult to judge the worthiness of a particular topic for inclusion in an encyclopedia considering that there is no certain way to know what interests people, but some topics nevertheless are not fit for an encyclopedia.

This motto reflects the desire of these Wikipedians to be reluctant, but not entirely unwilling, to remove articles from Misplaced Pages.
