January 2018[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Talk:Cosmological_argument are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines, not for general discussion about the topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you.

Yes, I noticed that someone was arguing about a source (as I recall) but they’re long gone so I can’t explain talk pages to them. Our talk pages aren’t venues for comments on the subject, but for discussions directly related to the article, and our articles are meant to be based on reliable sources. See WP:VERIFY and WP:RS. 20:53, 9 January 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doug Weller (talk • contribs)

You already explained that, but you didn't explain why the comment (I commented on) was not also removed. Wether or not that user is gone makes no difference. R.heusdens (talk) 20:57, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
