User blog:Angel Emfrbl/wikipedia confuses me...


 * So I wrote a stub page for the Vocaloid Piko and it was "okay". I then wrote a page for VY1 that had several times the content - VY1 is pulled up as "its advertisement".
 * I write a page for Sweet Ann - thats fine, but Big Al is pulled up for lack of notability...

VY1 is up for speedy delete and Big Al page's is up for deletion. I argued for VY1, because that one didn't make sense and Big Al needs help from a second editor so that one is kinda justified. But the whole thing with Piko contrasting the two puts this whole issue in a funny light.

Its not the first time... Symphonic Choirs, I mentioned some time ago, got slapped with a speedy delete template due to "being advertisment". Remarkable though, I made a page on LalaVoice that went by without a bater of an eyelash... Maybe its because THAT software was so dated.

I get the idea there is no real standard on wikipedia either way. I repaired the Realivox page after a template was put on it for lack of connections between pages, but honestly... Nobody has told me anything about how to get rid of the template or if its time it can be removed.

Take note, from 2004-2010 I had a boycott on this site because politics were getting in the way of making wiki edits to the One Piece page... Of which the final straw had been wasting an entire week for some idiot to slap the page with a "they copied my site!!!" plea and ave the page deleted. I didn't even know getting information directly from the manga counted as copying the contents of an website... ¬_¬'

So I kinda felt I had to rant a bit here, now I'm done with the synths I thought I'd return to vocaloid page editing there, but its coming to a standstill. Funny thing is, I've only come across this with non-video game applications. In the past when I used to edit a video game set of pages, no one asked any questions. It makes me wonder if there is a double standard on wikipedia in regards to software. :-/

Still, I have no idea if VY1's page will remain, it usually takes a week to resolve... As for Al's, it could take a month. I can't VO forums nor youtube to cite sources, the boards are banned and youtube is scorned.
