Misplaced Pages:Delegitimization as a tactic
Uninsightful, garbled personal essay, serves only as a highly idiosyncratic personal argument by which one troubled editor apparently means to defend himself from his critics. "Delegitimation refers to the process whereby an editor and his or her diffs are undermined because of an alleged deviation from wiki-norms. It becomes a distraction from closer scrutiny of the content of an editor's writing. It is marginalizing or devaluing the legitimacy of a contributor to our encyclopedia building project." What is this supposed to mean, beyond "I feel butthurt because people have criticized my editing so much"? Delete or userfy; no chance this will become a useful opinion reference that others will commonly have reasons to refer to. Fut.Perf. ☼ 03:43, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
- Tenmei probably wrote this article as part of his rant Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Senkaku_Islands/Workshop#Delegitimization_as_a_tactic against other parties in an on-going ArbCom case. As it occurs, I am the person he is complaining about. --Bobthefish2 (talk) 03:56, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
Keep -- As I explained on the talk page here, this term is new to me. However, the concept of "delegitimization as a tactic" appears to have been used with some frequency, including community discussions about articles for deletion.
- The history of recurrent and increasing usage in a range of Mainspace (WP:Namespace) contexts suggests (a) the arguable relevance of the subject; and (b) the plausible likelihood of potential contributors who may expand it -- compare Misplaced Pages search results
- The use of this term in a range of real world contexts suggests that it has become a "buzz word", which suggests continued and increasing Mainspace usage in the near future -- compare Google search results.
This array of factors are unrelated to the speculative comments in the diffs above. --Tenmei (talk) 14:50, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
