::::::::::::Your interpretation doesn't match with the way the guideline is usually interpreted. It's a personal site because one person wrote it and put it up. - [[User:MrOllie|MrOllie]] ([[User talk:MrOllie|talk]]) 18:08, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
::::::::::::: It is not an interpretation, it is the definition of a [[Personal web page|Personal site]] as defined by Wikipedia. We are using Wikipedia's rules and definitions here. Please read the definition of [[Personal web page|Personal site]], no where does it define a personal site as your definition of "It's a personal site because one person wrote it and put it up." The guidelines you have presented is [[WP:ELNO]] point 11. Since the EL is not a [[Blog]] by Wikipedia's definition, nor is it a [[Personal web page|Personal site]] as per Wikipedia's definition, nor is it a [[Fansite]] by Wikipedia's definition. Therefore, [[WP:ELNO]] point 11 does not apply to this EL. [[User:Paul.wehland|Paul.wehland]] ([[User talk:Paul.wehland|talk]]) 18:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
::::::::::::::No, Wikipedia's policies and guidelines do not necessarily follow the definitions given in mainspace articles - if they did, we'd have to control edits there as tightly as we do the policy pages, which is obviously not the case. - [[User:MrOllie|MrOllie]] ([[User talk:MrOllie|talk]]) 18:59, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
