The importance of The White Rose Society transcends anything its detractors post here.
I use Misplaced Pages a lot, but this issue is the first time I am actively participating in a discussion so I apologize if I am ignorant to the convention for editing talk dicussions. I want to answer something stated on the project page: Keep. Ben is perfectly within his rights to ask for his friends at DU to help him defend his web site here. I download something from White Rose every day. Keep, keep, keep. On edit: Looks like the FReepers are getting in on the act, so expect a whole spate of deletes from them.
Just because one uses a site is not merit for a Wiki article. I'm sorry. Misplaced Pages is a tool to be used as a launching point for research and information gathering. If anybody wanted to research the "White Rose Society Website" there are plenty of more appropriate ways to do this, namely going to the website. The article in question has no real content other than a link. There is no value add. What useful information could possibly be gleaned from a short synoposis and a link to the site? That people frequent another website is not good enough. This is Wikispam.
Ben is NOT within is rights to ask people from an unrelated message board to flood keep. If you disagree, please tell me how the article would be in any way useful to them. What reference does it contain that they might ever need to look up? Why would anyone ever use the article?
