You two have just pretty much defined by example reductio ad absurdum, on both ends of the spectrum.
Which "end of the spectrum" am I supposed to have done this for? If I attack inane ideas am I then inane or am I simply attacking the inane???
Isn't there anyone who isn't readily willing to descend into such inanity who will defend deletionism?
I consider myself an inclusionist, but I defend deletionism if done in the spirit and letter of the rules.
But now you mention it, isn't this about inanity anyway? If somebody creates an inane article do we let it stand?
If I create an article about 'People scratching themselves behind their ears' and the notability guideline is removed, would this article be allowed to stand or not?? And if it stayed, what sort of thing would be in it?
