Forum:CT Archive/Original Research restriction

It was agreed at the Mofference that our Original Research policy should not be a precise copy of Wikipedia's. The task before us, then, is to draw a line. I feel that a hardline "NO ORIGINAL RESEARCH EVER" policy is unwise. Consider, for example, Neelgaimon ...now if we can't source the fact that this is obviously a reference to the author Neil Gaiman, does that mean we can't mention it in the BTS section? No, that would be absurd. So as I see it, we have to permit a very limited degree of logical deduction, ideally based on evidence. Discuss.  Gonk  ( Gonk! ) 02:16, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
