You reverted an IP who had removed the following content:
"In metaphysics, self-reference is subjectivity, while "hetero-reference", as it is called (see Niklas Luhmann), is objectivity.[citation needed]"
With the edit summary "Unneccessary removal".
2 points because arguably this was entirely necessary: (i) it is unsourced, and (ii) the cn tag is from 2010.
I have removed the content again on principle, and please note that it the burden for supplying supporting citations lies with the person who wants to re-add the information (read WP:BURDEN). Lesion (talk) 09:20, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
- Ah. Ok, sorry. I was not aware of WP:BURDEN. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. --VictorLucas 03:41, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
