I originally intended to mirror this article here as its subject is an anarchist. I prefer Anarchopedia's politics to those of wikipedia. The article on wikipedia was recently deleted without consensus. There was a majority but the majority was a group who had a personal vendetta against Andrew Nellis and had nothing to do with the content of the page. Oddly, I had also created an article on another activist in the Ottawa community running for mayor. Her article was not deleted as she is not known to the group online who know Andrew Nellis. --[[User:Fredm|Fredm]] 14:19, 27 September 2006 (UTC) | I originally intended to mirror this article here as its subject is an anarchist.

Reason for mirror[edit]
I originally intended to mirror this article here as its subject is an anarchist. I prefer Anarchopedia's politics to those of wikipedia. The article on wikipedia was recently deleted without consensus. There was a majority but the majority was a group who had a personal vendetta against Andrew Nellis and had nothing to do with the content of the page. Oddly, I had also created an article on another activist in the Ottawa community running for mayor. Her article was not deleted as she is not known to the group online who know Andrew Nellis. --Fredm 14:19, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
- Great to see you here, Fredm, my innitial switch over from Wikipedia was also due to the issue of censorship, and from what i can see it's only getting worse in there. Please feel free to move over all the articles that you've create for Wikipedia here, since you are the author you don't even need to add any back links to Wikipedia, since you are the one who holds copyright in the eyes of the law, or if you release your works under public domain even better yet. ~ Beta_M (VolodyA!

Actually Wikipedia has rules about creating articles about individuals. That is, unless you have made some notable contribution to society, you are not worth writing about. I.e., Andrew Nellis has done fuck all for the world, so why should he be written about? It's not about him being an "anarchist". Please...Wikipedia has standards, and that's what you don't like. Get over yourself Andrew Nellis. You really aren't that important.
- Wikipedia is not a venue for self-advertisement, which this page clearly is. Obviously he has written this about himself to glorify his ego. Ergo....DELETE!!!
Actually: "Wikipedia is free and open, but restricts both freedom and openness where they interfere with creating an encyclopedia. Accordingly, Wikipedia is not a forum for unregulated free speech. The fact that Wikipedia is an open, self-governing project does not mean that any part of its purpose is to explore the viability of anarchic communities. Our purpose is to build an encyclopedia, not to test the limits of anarchism."
