 * 1) As the proposer. This policy was based off of, with some changes made to fit our wiki. For example, I added age and writing skill to this, whereas Wookieepedia simply talks about mental and physical conditions? Why did I do that? Simple. How many times have you seen users say "I'm younger so leave me alone" or "I'm not a good writer so stop saying you're going to delete my article, it's not fair"? Short answer: a lot. This is only going to increase with the upcoming mass deletion. Now we're certainly not expecting people to write like featured article writers. The idea is that they can't use their lack of skills as an excuse to not follow policies like the Manual of Style. That's incredibly fair and, for the most part, common sense. It just needs to be written down so we can point to it, which we will have to do in this mass deletion. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 16:56, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
