Wikipedia Protest

Does anyone think we should stage some kind of protest on wikipedia? Alicianpig (talk) 16:21, 29 July 2011 (MSD)

Yes and no. There's no need for organized or disruptive activity, nor spam, nor bots, nor anything improper. As individuals, we encounter people who have had things deleted improperly, or who have had material deleted in contentious processes (Sep11wiki, for example). Just talk to them, one by one, person to person, if you feel that this site offers a possible solution for their problem. Wnt (talk) 21:59, 29 July 2011 (MSD)

I'm not suggesting anything vicious or disruptive, more of some kind of verbal protest on their policy discussion page.Alicianpig (talk) 22:57, 29 July 2011 (MSD)

What are you wanting to protest exactly? ☂ (talk) 00:19, 30 July 2011 (MSD)

• I see no point in a "protest" from here. It doesn't seem to be the purpose of Wikialpha to change or disrupt Wikipedia. Let them have their rules, and let Wikialpha have it's rules. Editors will edit on their wiki of choice. Wikialpha doesn't seem to be here to change wikipedia, it's here to improve on it by taking the material they discard and giving it a home.
