It proves nothing about deletionism and it doesn't mean reliable sources
suck either.
It means the reason for a nomination actually has to be checked before an
article is deleted.
If the nominator says the site has no Alexa ranking you check the site to
see if it actually is about the article's subject, and you check if a
relevant site indeed has no Alexa ranking.
He tricked the real people in this debate because they were simply sloppy in
handling it.
The rules are fine as they are as long as the deleting admin actually
applies them.

The sooner we start making RS subject-specific
the better. This
nonsense has got to stop.
Exactly. Reliable sources suck! For web content, we should have less
strict standards and allow regular blogs and forum/usenet posts as
sources!
PS: I can't wait for the policy to change, in order to start writing
a few articles about me and my blog, referencing them from the blogs
of my friends and family.
