[edit] Articles which I wrote, but which were deleted

Occasionally, I have the unpleasant experience of learning that an article I created wasn't deemed "encyclopedic." There is a powerful deletionist lobby that seeks to remove all articles about topics not deemed "notable." Instead of letting them be deleted outright, I have moved them to my user space. This preserves their edit histories, so that if circumstances or opinions later change and the topic somehow becomes "notable," it can simply be moved back to the main article space.

  • Hierarchypedia: An online encyclopedia about the world's political, economic, military, and religious power structures. As it turned out, the decision of the authorities to delete this article proved to be in the right: within weeks, the website that this article featured was shut down.
  • List of born-again Christian laypeople: A list of well-known individuals who are known as born-again Christians. I should have known how controversial this list would prove to be, with others (nonbelievers) insisting on removing huge numbers of names. In the end, it got deleted.

Christianity in Korea
David Yonggi Cho
Pitcairn rape trial of 2004
Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara
Reconciliaiton and Unity Commission of Fiji
Yoido Full Gospel Church

Everything I write is about something that interests me, so in one sense every article is special. There are, however, a few articles I've worked on that I am particularly proud of.

The article about Ratu Mara appeared on the Main Page, at the time of his death in April 2004. This was the first time one of my articles appeared there.

I first wrote the Christianity in Korea article as a university assignment back in 1988. It was one of the few things that I ever got Grade A for. Only a minor update was required to turn it into a Wikipedia article.
