I was encouraged by Rob Smith (RobS) sometime ago to add articles that I had written at other sites to this one. I don't know if Rob is still editing here. Anyway, I have been doing so slowly. A few of my articles are being selected for deletion. The [[Robert Bolling]] article had this posting, "This article has been proposed for speedy deletion. The reason given is: It is obvious vandalism, sarcastic mockery, or inappropriate according to The Conservapedia Commandments." Really? The article is appropriate? It is sarcastic mockery? Or it is vandalism? This is beginning to sound like the garbage I was facing at Wikipedia! This editor says he is a historian and he is also listing two other articles of mine for deletion [[John Allen Borgman]] and [[Abel Prescott]] who is just as important historically as [[William Dawes]] but because some historian or poet through the years didn't mention him in his work, he has been almost forgotten. This does not make the person any less significant or encyclopedic. What am I to do to argue my points or should I just not bother?
