Point of View on Misplaced Pages
I wish to vastly improve the AfD process here at Misplaced Pages. Having won through the process once, only to have it overturned, I have experienced the discussion process to be a bit faulty and subject to personal vendetta, opinion, and some sort of democratic frenzy. There needs to be some sort of framework which can allow votes to be cast only when the points made can be shown to have validity after the proper discourse, not in spite of it. In this regard, wikipedia must be understood to be something that is not democratic, i.e. you have to be able to explain your vote and the process which led to it via rebuttal. Currently, the AfD process does not allow that into it's framework, and rhetoric seems to dominate much of the process, just like any other democracy."
"Recently, the Colbert Report highlighted this discrepancy and even gave it a word, Wikiality, which of course got deleted off of Misplaced Pages as a nn!"
