<DIV>This is an insult to the people who actually participate in Votes for Deletion and feel that we and the page provide a useful function. If you feel that any and all pages need to be kept, then why don't you say so on the VfD page? Because you are better than that? You're above it? VfD is beneath your contempt? You are so much superior to those of us who feel that made-up articles and people's resumes don't belong on Wikipedia?</DIV>

<DIV>Please explain how to fix an article which contains nothing but a resume of someone nobody has ever heard of.</DIV>
