Talk:Black Dutch
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Wikipedia Not the Place to Ride Hobby Horses
Someone came along and completely eliminated my original article and substituted one of their own. I don't think the two points of view are incompatible but when you completely eliminate an article and "start over" you should have a good reason, otherwise it looks like vandalism. The article is not the place for debates and axe grinding. Just because something has a reference doesn't make it factual or true in exclusion to other voices. Changes should be discussed in the discussion section and agreed upon before being implemented. Ethnic subjects should be treated more sensitively.
