Further, on his talk page, he explains with respect to a question from me,
that, if he !votes at AfD, it will only be to !vote "delete"
"I wouldn't participate in an AfD where I would vote 'keep' since my
primary
goal is to trim down Wikipedia"
and goes on to say that at AfD:
"any vote is a contribution to the discussion, even if contains no rationale
whatsoever."
The appropriate response might seem to ignore his voice there until he can
show that he does know the rationales for discriminating between
encyclopedic and not encyclopedic content.
But then a little further down we read:
"I'd definitely been into forming a group of like-minded souls. There are
quite a few users who frequent AfDs, some of which surely would be
interested as well. it would be nice to have a group to help spread the
word."
So I suppose we must be on the lookout for meat-puppets and canvassing as
well, since his declared intent is to form such a bloc.
I'm
sorry I incorrectly assumed that "Doctorfluffy" was an
Administrator, and that his mission had been discussed on this list. -
From:

"My Mission
The English Wikipedia has over 2,000,000 articles. That's absurd.
Anyone
who even glances at the notability policy will immediately realize
that
there are clearly not that many notable subjects in existence. There
is so
much crap on here that it makes my head spin. As such, my goal here
is to
remove all garbage from Wikipedia. I enjoy tagging articles and
participating in AFDs and I am strongly against all forms of
cruftery."
So the issue here is that Doctorfluffy is not interested in writing an
encyclopedia so much as destroying one, and raises querrelous and ill-
founded objections, not that an Oxford-published source is unreliable?
OK. That's comforting.
