This would mean that only English-language references are acceptable in en:wp, which is of course false. Your statement takes a useful idea (no original research), extrapolates it until it really obviously breaks, and then puts forward the broken version as a good thing. You appear to be mixing up policy, guidelines, practice and how you personally think things should be, without distinguishing which you are describing at any given time; this leads only to confusion. - d. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
