Talk page commentaries

Hi, Fritz. Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Having looked at some of your recent postings to various discussion pages, especially Talk:Constitutional democracy and Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Philosophy, I think you have misunderstood what is expected for these pages. Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia, and as such its articles are intended to summarize the existing state of knowledge as expressed in previously-published sources. Discussion on Talk pages is intended to be about how to accomplish that -- what are the most respected existing sources, for example, or what wording most accurately summarizes those sources. Discussion of new ideas or arguing about which beliefs are right is not our focus here. Your recent postings seem to be more about the latter rather than the former. Before posting further, I would suggest reading the explanations at Misplaced Pages:What Misplaced Pages is not for more insight into what is appropriate content for the site. --RL0919 (talk) 20:45, 2 March 2018 (UTC)

I would like to add: The reason you can't find references to "Altruistic-hedonism philosophy" in modern philosophical words is because it is not a philosophy, nor a branch of thought, nor even a principle. It's a descriptive term for the juxtaposition of hedonism and altruism. Since both of those terms are well-defined, there is no need for modern philosophers to discuss the impact of their juxtaposition.
Listen, I don't want to be rude, but Misplaced Pages is not the place for you to discuss your take on philosophy with others. See WP:NOTFORUM. All of your contributions thus far have treated our talk pages as forums, and that's not cool. You're disrupting the project. WP is not like other sites: It don't exist for the use of our members. In fact, our members exist only because we are of use to the project. The goal of WP is to provide a comprehensive, 💕 for the world to use. As an editor, we have no rights, only responsibilities. If you want to discuss philosophy with others, start a movement, hash out some stuff to publish, you are free to do so. But you can't do it here. I'm sorry, I don't intend to be rude, but there is no room for discussion about this. Even if you think your philosophy discussions will end up being useful to WP, even if they are all about WP, they simply don't belong here. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 20:53, 2 March 2018 (UTC)


It would be more constructive to point at precise shortcomings of my edits for corrections rather than waving them off in their entirety, because I am certain of their relevance at least in part (I am generally not participating in shallow internet talks, as I do not live on the internet...) You may be certain of their relevance, but I (being the far more experienced Misplaced Pages editor of the two of us) am quite certain of the opposite. I suggest you defer to my judgement. If you don't, I will ask an admin to force you to stop making such posts, and I assure you that my request will be granted. I will cross-post this to your page, in case you aren't watching this one. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 22:36, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
