ok, I misunderstood, I thought the page had been deleted, in that case, I don't mind strong opinions, but I would mind censoring a page that reflects developing theoretical work around peer learning theories<br><br>there is a proper way to integrate the critiques, even disclaimers that it is a theory, that does not involve depriving wikipedia users of that valuable information,<br>

I don't understand.<br>
<br>
The article itself is not identified as being considered for deletion. �It is at <<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connectivism" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connectivism</a>>.<br>
<br>
The discussion is certainly energetic. � That is not unusual on a Talk page.<br>
<br>
If you look at the history of edits <<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Connectivism&action=history" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Connectivism&action=history</a>>, you'll see that most of the reversions are based on failure to honor Wikipedia guidelines. �These might be used to exercise inappropriate power, but it seems better for contributors to address the technical objections (not the positional ones).<br>
<br>
I am not a fan of the Wikipedia process, but I think they have not done anything unusual here (although clearly some of the commentators on the discussion page have strong opinions about the topic).<br>
