Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/The Meaning of the Qur'an (tafsir)
What you can do is surround your nomination by <strike> and </strike>, and append Nomination withdrawn. ~~~~. --Lambiam 00:27, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
- That makes sense. Now, being pedantic, it actually should be unimportant whether I as proposer withdraw it or not, since the matter is effectively up for peer review? I think, since I've clarified my position on the page AfD page there is no sense in following your suggestion this time only? Fiddle Faddle 06:17, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

catflappery
well, my point is that the majority of people, at least on the web, use another term. it's easier to use something like "pet door" and just move on. there is no reason to keep it at cat flap, when the ones who use that word seem to be a stark minority. Joeyramoney 10:32, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
- It still doesn't matter. No nations will be conquered whichever term is used. No human rights destriyed. Fiddle Faddle 10:42, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
Bad faith deletion of new article on Shefa
Eliezer (under a new name) is trying to delete articles on real organizations. The claim he made on the Shefa Network page is false and disingenuous. The Shefa Network is a real group within Conservative Judaism, and in fact is already larger than many organizations that Misplaced Pages already has many articles on.
The Shefa Network already has several hundred members, they have their own journal, their own website, they have already had two major conferences, and two more conferences are planned soon. Yet Eliezer and a friend of his are trying to delete its article? Eliezer has refused to even discuss the issue on the article's discussion page, despite the fact that I am trying to engage in civil discourse. Eliezer and his friend haven't even tried to see if the group exists.
Note the timestamps; they tried to delete the article within minutes of its creation. They obviously didn't even try to read the group's official website, or read its academic journal. They certainly never went to any of Shefa's conferences! They also never joined Shefa's e-mail list and asked anyone about the group. Look, attempting to delete a page without even trying to ascertain the facts is clearly against Misplaced Pages policy. And doing so while refusing to engage in dialogue is editing in bad faith, by definition.
If someone somehow still doubts that this organization exists, I can arrange for an interview with its founder, or its journal editor, webmaster, and members of this organization who have been to Shefa's academic conferences. RK 14:09, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
