Caste Football Wikipedia entry

[IceSpeed]

In order to mainstream this website, a wikipedia
entry should be created. It should be unbiased, fair, and explain
what Caste Football is about. The wikipedia is becoming the most
powerful force on the Internet and can make an upstart website a huge
website.

How do you make an entry on that site anyway? I always wondered how they got all that information on there.

 

[Don Wassall]

I don't know about wikipedia. Ice Speed, can you explain more about it?

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Don, It's an online encyclopedia that has a meaning for just about everything under the sun. It also explains terms, such as Caste Football, and it is usually done by some left wing idiot. The thing for us to remember is that we can create our own definition by submitting it to them. In my opinion, this should be done by someone that is as knowledgeable as yourself, who can best articulate what Caste Football is and why it is significant. You can look wikipedia up on any search engine. Hope I helped.

 

[Don Wassall]

Thanks for the info, Col. Reb. I checked out their site and it looks like the kind of things lots of high school and college students go to when doing research, so I can see how it would benefit us to have a listing there.

The interesting thing about wikipedia is that anyone can
immediately write an article or edit an existing one. People check the articles to prevent vandalism. There are a few mentions of Caste Football, but none of them are positive. One can write up a small article(stub) and go back to it later while it is still online. As a matter of fact, I will write a stub right now and anybody here can edit it at their will.
It also would be wise to edit an existing article on some white athletes with information from Caste Football. Then, Caste Football can be posted as a link in very popular entries such as "Rocky Marciano", "Babe Ruth", and "Larry Bird".

The article has been up for half an hour and someone already deemed it racist.

That's the problem with wikipedia icespeed, you have a bunch of left wing socio-commies checking that sight all the time, a lot of the info in their is biased. It will at least be out there though, where people can make up there own minds about it. That's the only way to win people over, they have to come to the same conclusions we do over time, they likely won't be coerced into it. I think it's a good idea, but it will probably lead to many more racist labels. I guess for those ignorant folks, my flag won't help either, but that's their problem. If they don't know the truth and won't listen to me, then it's on them, not me.

 

[Don Wassall]

Almost anyone who isn't a serious sports fan will immediately dismiss Caste Football. Of those who are serious sports fans, almost just as many will do the same. But that's just the way it is in America right now. If there are 100 million football fans in this country, and there are, if even one percent thinks like us or does over time, that's one million people. That's a huge potential pool of supporters. That's the way I prefer to look at it. Informed, highly motivated vanguards of small numbers of people always forge change; the "majority" always follows after the changes become the new "mainstream."

This website isnt any more bigoted than hearing about the Black Decline
In Baseball article posted on an earlier thread. As a bigot is one
partial to ones group, and that article delt with blacks only.
The word "racist" is overly misused, and when if ever has Castefootball
said whites are superior? The About Us section of the website states
"We respect that blacks make good football players".

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Good points guys, I agree with them all.

Here is a copy of the people that are voting to delete the article(paragraph) from wikipedia.

Wikipedia is not a (racist) web directory. CDC (talk) 02:28, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

The article is not racist, but rather about a site that at least deals with the issue of "race". I think it could warrant a neutrality dispute page however.[This statement is mine]

* Delete. Wikipedia is not a web directory for every fringe website out there. An article on Race in U.S. sports could be very interesting, though, if done well. According to Google (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&safe=off&client=safa ri&rls=en&q=link:fIS3DLeD3QMJ:www.castefootball.us/), there seem to be about five unique websites linking to this page, and all of them look pretty suspicious (white supremacist tinges). --Fastfission 03:39, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
* Delete: Wikipedia is not a web guide. Let this web site have a good Alexa number, and then talk to us about it. Otherwise, if there is anything more bankrupt and corrosive than the concept of race, it's the concept of caste. Geogre 06:01, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
* Delete. Fringe website. Average Earthman 08:09, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
* Delete (with reservarions) If someone wants to attempt a complete blank and rewrite, it migh pass. Otherwise, no. -Casito 08:44, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
* Delete Tone of article leans to POV. Article entity is also of questionable notability, though further editting and expansion might show why it should remain. However, on balance I say delete. -- Glen Finney 13:25, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC) Edited by: IceSpeed

 

[Bear-Arms]

I just like to state the opposing views seem much more racist.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Your ding dang right about that Bear Arms, we see who has no tolerance. It's those who claim to have a monopoly on it.

 

[Bear-Arms]

Looks like it has been deleted as I can't find it on the website any longer.

 

[IceSpeed]

Yeah. Maybe in the near future one of us could just mention it in an article about perspectives on race in american sports. There were a couple of people that voted delete just because it was a poorly written article(It was written very quickly and not a formal entry) and did not expand on CF enough.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

What does wiki mean anyway?

 

[Bear-Arms]

Wiki is a web site with various authors similar to a blog,but anyone can edit or delete things, Colonel Reb. Also means fast in Hawaiian.
