Better explanation
editHi Lily,
I have tagged your new article, Coleslaw and potato salad are objectively good foods for speedy deletion because Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that records facts, not just personal opinions. It may be that you personally like coleslaw and potato salad, but our neutral point of view policy says that articles must not contain statements like "you're wrong", because that it just a mere statement of opinion, and can't be proved. As the subject of this article is something that you clearly made up on your own, unfortunately it has to be speedily deleted. Don't be discouraged though—there are many existing articles we'd be glad to get your help on. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions.

That is blasphemy and lies. How can you say anything is 'fact' when there is no evidence that everything we see isn't just a hallucination or an illusion? reality is just what the world collectively agrees is true. When someone experiences a hallucination we say what they see or hear isn't real because the majority do not sense it, but in reality there is no evidence what we sense is even there. Everything is opinion, even the so called 'facts' on this website. If this is such an 'objective' site, why should the opinion of the minority on what constitutes 'fact' be censored because of the opinion of the majority? Nothing in the end has any proof of reality, and fact itself is nothing but a fragile and false concept. Such clinging to concepts such as that is petty and illogical. Besides, it has a citation. I've done my research on this, this is objectively true.
- Hi Lily. If you want to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, there are several policies I suggest you read up on.
- Verifiability: To add material into Wikipedia, it is not sufficient just to claim that something is true. You have to provide reliable sources to support this claim. The issue here isn't censorship, the issue is that it's not for an encyclopedia to judge which foods are "better." Can't we let our own readers decide? We have an article on potato salad, and an article on coleslaw; our readers can read those pages, and if they find the description appealing, they can go ahead and eat those foods. The purpose of Wikipedia is to provide facts so people can make up their own opinions based on those facts.
- Circular referencing: Sorry, but the "citation" you mentioned is your own article. You can't cite your own work to prove that your are right.
- Original research: What also follows from the verifiability policy is we cannot depend upon original research, i.e. research that somebody did on their own and has never been formally published. There is just no way of judging the quality of original research.
- Also, how do we now that everything we see isn't just a hallucination or an illusion? Philosphically, we don't. Philosphers like David Hume have struggled with this question for centuries. But if we were to question the existence of everything, the whole world would grind to a halt. Altamel (talk) 04:27, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
