==[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:Morning Glory Greetings]]==
[[Image:Ambox warning_pn.svg|48px|left]] A tag has been placed on [[:Morning Glory Greetings]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[WP:CSD#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], such articles may be deleted at any time. Please [[Wikipedia:Notability|see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable]], as well as our subject-specific [[Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)|notability guideline for organizations and companies]]. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the [[Wikipedia:Article wizard2.0|Article Wizard]].
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to '''the top of [[:Morning Glory Greetings|the page that has been nominated for deletion]]''' (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on '''[[Talk:Morning Glory Greetings|the talk page]]''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact [[:Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles|one of these admins]] to request that they [[Wikipedia:Userfication#Userfication_of_deleted_content|userfy]] the page or have a copy emailed to you. <!-- Template:Db-inc-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:Toddst1|Toddst1]] <small>([[User talk: Toddst1|talk]])</small> 13:56, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Instead, would it be better to focus on the highly partisan tone of their interactions, bordering on soapboxing? There are several editors who fit in the SCJ mode: Viriditas frequently writes in a manor that strongly suggests partisanship, recently presenting a partisan essay as fact on the PD talk. Recent conflicts with KDP, Tony Sidaway, ChrisO, (probably others) display a strong POV in the way they evaluate sourcing or weight (e.g. the Monckton Abraham mess, in which TS is still arguing that Abraham's presentation was reliable). So I see SCJ as evidence of a ''larger problem'', that some POVs are ''acceptable'' here and are allowed to thrive while others are squashed. Perhaps the "confluence" or "faction" is less about coordination and more about the accumulated effects of this uneven treatment of POV. | | | + | | | | + | There's evidence of the double standard in this case. In my view, TGL is no worse in his propensity to express his POV (from the other side), and he's on his way to a significant ban, while similarly partisan editors on the other side are not mentioned. JWB, I believe you already had an evidence section on KDP and others, perhaps it can be expanded to include other POV editors who have not only escaped sanction, but have been ''emboldened'' by the presence of so many others like them. Maybe the "faction" started with a seed of a few highly placed editors who selectively favored their own, and it evolved to this. (Recall that highly partisan editors like Raul were once ''arbitrators'' here, and Raul pretty much started the Scibaby crusade which has done significant collateral damage to the skeptic POV).

The benefit of vector maps is that if colour conventions change, it is much easier to change map colours to match ([[anti-aliasing]] gets in the way of that). They're also more easy to edit in general by people other than the ones who created the map (who presumably have a vector-based source image). If you're just getting into this area, have a go with [[Inkscape]]. It's been recently updated with a whole heap of swish features, but a core principle of the design of the application is its user-friendliness, so it's quite easy to learn how to use.
