Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Seeking truth from fact

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Seeking truth from fact is hard, so is trying to fathom the reason for this article. Rmhermen 23:42, Jun 29, 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete: This is from Celebrity Farm Film Philosophy? Wow. It's not nonsense, nor original research, I guess: it's an obvious statement uttered in complete sincerity and obliquity. Geogre 00:39, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)

  • Reads like pop psychology and is totally unencyclopedic. I, as a duly designated human being, hereby vote to delete. - Lucky 6.9 04:57, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Sophomoric philosophy. Delete. DJ Clayworth 15:37, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete (or redirect to Epistemology?). Original research. Wikipedia does not concern itself with truth, but with facts. Fact, fact, fact! Wikipedia is a work of realities, a work of facts and calculations. Wikipedia proceeds upon the principle that two and two are four, and nothing over, and is not to be talked into allowing for anything over. Wikipedia, with a rule and a pair of scales, and the multiplication table always in its pocket, sir, ready to weigh and measure any parcel of human nature, and tell you exactly what it comes to. It is a mere question of figures, a case of simple arithmetic. You might hope to get some other nonsensical belief into the text of the Britannica, or Grolier, or Encarta, but into the text of Wikipedia—no, sir! Ironic joking aside, delete.
