I dunno it seems to be working at Uncyclopedia. Servival of the
fittest and all that.
Is that sarcasm or something? You're not seriously suggesting that
Wikipedia become more like Uncyclopedia, are you?
2)Errr that isn't happening.
I disagree.
See all the recent messages on the mailing list

inclusionist position is to include everything.
Huh? Is the logical endpoint of the deletionist position to delete

Yep. In practice deletionists tend to be in a much better position to
draw a line in the sand.
You're seriously misunderstanding the technique of reductio ad absurdium.
For one thing, you seem to be expanding rather than reducing. I really don't
have the time to teach you logic, but your current argument is more of a
slippery slope argument than one of reductio ad absurdium.
In fact, I think I've decided (once again) to not get involved in any
discussions with you. I just wish I could force myself to abide by this
decision.
