This should be required reading - it completely upends
fundamental
assumptions about our content, and has huge implications for things
like deletion. The sense that our inclusion and notability policies
put us at odds with readers who are not major parts of the community
has always been there, but this troublingly nails it: the population
of people who write articles and people who delete them are nearly
exclusive.
That's a huge issue.
We've know this for over a year. The counter is the question of if it
holds true for new articles where most deletion actually takes place.
