Hi Kimchi.sg, I am shocked to hear that I allegedly violated someone's copyright, because I did NOT. This article, amongst others, is my own writing,in my own words.

Alternative answer

Hi Anne, the key policy in this case is Wikipedia is not a soapbox (there may be others that apply including this one and this one). Let me know if you have any further questions - you can ask here or on my talk page. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 10:58, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Zzzuuzz,

I am just trying to give an alternative,to the surveillance state and to the ever-growing controlling devices such as ID cards/NIR, that can strike a balance between national security and civil liberties. I am not the only one to do so.

Can you tell me why the other alternative solution entitled "ID cards to establish identity without revealing personal information " has not been deleted? It is as subjective as my own article, so why has not it been deleted? Anne lenoir

Hi Anne. I hear your pain, but the type of essay you wrote in that article is not the type of original piece that an encyclopaedia should carry. I think the policy links I gave above explain it quite well. You ask about the other 'alternative solution' in the article - the major difference is that it is only a link. There is nothing inherently objectionable to linking to alternative views, and indeed that article has a special section for it. However, if the article on the ID card (and Register) were to contain everybody's opinion on the subject there would be no room for finding out about the objective (or rather, balanced) and well-reported facts that we aim to present. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 13:37, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Zzzuuz. Thanks for the tip, I will link my article then.
